Ronan" <per21@hermes.cam.ac.uk> To: Seb Wills <saw27@cam.ac.uk> Subject: Re: Foreign Office stance Looks like this is essentially self-jusifying. UNSCOM wants a reason to perpetuate their presence in Iraq and keep Iraq under sanctions, as is indicated in the speculation that Iraq would rebuild its arsenal as soon as it was able to sell its oil on the open market. Seems like UNSCOM and the Foreign Office don't then have to ever give Iraq its full autonomy, or at least not while Saddam Hussein heads the government. -PR -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a discussion list run by Campaign Against Sanctions on Iraq.
