#2 Not for long they don't.

Honestly, what are these governments going to do with all these diplomats and embassy's once Saddam's government has fallen, set them up as the legitimate government-in-exile of Iraq? That'd be a laugh riot...

#3 good question, especially if Iraq Interim Authority doesnt take power for several months. In afghan only 3 countries recognized the Taliban, and all backed off shortly after war began. What will happen after Iraqi govt collapses in Baghdad and can no longer claim to be de facto govt?? Expect much grinding of teeth among the various weasels.
