I read an article today in the Wall Street Journal (paper edition, of course; online they CHARGE for) entitled: "U.N. Rifts Could Block Iraq Oil":

Hussein may have vanished, but U.N. economic sanctions devised to contain him remain in force, creating a diplomatic tangle that could tie up plans to fund Iraq's reconstruction with its oil revenue.

So the UN might well put the kibosh on the backdoor-Bush-baksheesh . . .
