#1 How about using your hot air and temper tantrums to get all sanctions lifted? No fun huh? It would be the ultimate "screw you" by Bush if all aid to Iraq was funneled through Magen David Adom - heh heh, not gonna happen, but the spittle and eye-rolling throughout the Arab lands would be excellent viewing

#2 "Virgin's chief executive, Richard Branson, flew into Basra airport yesterday..."

And his pilot was an Iraqi exile who works for Virgin Alantic Airways...nice touch, that.

#3 Yeah, the UN has done such a wonderful job at everything else it has attempted to do, including protecting UN humanitarian aid workers (on the other hand, top level UN administrators for such projects tend to be very well compensated and equally well insulated from life in the trenches).
