BAGHDAD, July 20 -- U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan has given a report to members of the U.N. Security Council urging them to endorse the new Governing Council created by the U.S.-led occupation authority in Iraq, calling it "a broadly representative partner with whom the United Nations and the international community at large can engage."
Annan's recommendation, which was delivered to Security Council members Friday but is not to be released to the public until Monday, is an important show of support for the Governing Council, a 25-member body whose members were selected by the occupation authority to assume responsibility for numerous day-to-day tasks.
Many Iraqis, including an estimated 10,000 people who turned out to protest in the city of Najaf today, have dismissed the council's members as puppets of the United States, and some of Iraq's neighbors have been equally skeptical. But Annan's recommendation could help to garner Security Council approval of the new Iraqi body, a key step in building international legitimacy and recruiting much-needed foreign aid. The Security Council is scheduled to hear a report Tuesday from Annan's special representative in Iraq, Brazilian diplomat Sergio Vieira de Mello, and is likely to decide shortly after that whether to support the Governing Council.
As the Governing Council began its second week today by addressing several thorny policy issues, two U.S. soldiers from the 101st Airborne Division were killed when rocket-propelled grenades and small-arms fire struck their convoy near Tal Afar, a town about 240 miles north of Baghdad and west of Mosul, military officials said. A third soldier was injured in the early-morning incident, which took place far from the area around the capital where most attacks have occurred, the officials said.
The attack brings to 38 the number of U.S. military personnel killed in hostile acts since President Bush declared major combat in Iraq over on May 1.
Also today, a U.S. soldier was killed and two others injured when their vehicle crashed and flipped near Baghdad's international airport, military officials said.
A two-car convoy carrying members of the Geneva-based International Organization for Migration was ambushed near the city of Hilla when a pickup truck pulled up alongside one of the cars and opened fire, U.N. officials said. One Iraqi working for the organization was killed and three were injured when one car collided with an oncoming bus, the officials said.
The assailants appeared to seek out the vehicles belonging to the migration organization, which is affiliated with the United Nations, a U.N. official here said. The gunmen drove around a World Health Organization convoy before firing at the migration organization convoy, which was clearly marked and painted the same shade of blue as other U.N. vehicles here, the official said.
"This is of immense concern to us," said Ahmed Fawzi, a U.N. spokesman in Baghdad. "Although we have no way of knowing whether we were deliberately targeted, we cannot discount the chances."
Annan's report to the Security Council asks the body to consider the Governing Council equivalent to an interim government, called for in a recent Security Council resolution. "This is the interim Iraqi authority that Resolution 1483 urged," Fawzi said.
If the Security Council endorses the Governing Council, he said it would "clear the way" for foreign governments to start donating funds for Iraq's reconstruction. Many countries have been reluctant to give directly to the occupation authority and have insisted on dealing with a U.N.-approved transitional government.
A U.N. endorsement also would give the Iraqi council "more authority and independence," Vieira de Mello said in a recent interview. "It would take away the stigma of being puppets of the Americans," he said.
Despite Annan's backing, it is not certain that the Security Council will give the Governing Council an enthusiastic endorsement. Diplomats representing some nations on the Security Council, which passed a resolution in May allowing the United States and Britain to administer Iraq until it has a permanent government, have questioned whether the Governing Council will have sufficient power and enough independence from the U.S.-led occupation authority, which selected the members and will retain veto power over the council's decisions.
Annan's report echoes several arguments in support of the Governing Council made by U.S. officials, including the top U.S. civil administrator of Iraq, L. Paul Bremer. A copy of Annan's report was provided to a reporter.
In an effort to win over Security Council members, the Governing Council dispatched a three-person delegation to New York that included Iraqi National Congress leader Ahmed Chalabi, former foreign minister Adnan Pachachi and Akila Hashimi, a woman who had served as an Iraqi diplomat under Saddam Hussein's government, members of the council said. Although Chalabi had pulled out of the trip late last week, U.N. officials said that he changed his mind over the weekend and agreed to join the delegation.
The Governing Council has been criticized by many Iraqis, foremost among them Moqtada Sadr, an influential Shiite Muslim cleric in Najaf, a center of religious scholarship 90 miles south of Baghdad. Thousands of Sadr's followers marched for six miles to the U.S. government compound in Najaf, shouting slogans against the Governing Council and the Americans.
"Long live Sadr. America and the Council are infidels," the protesters chanted, according to an Associated Press report. "Moqtada, go ahead. We are your soldiers of liberation."
U.S. soldiers barricaded the headquarters building with Humvee vehicles, but the boisterous crowd dispersed after clerics read aloud an appeal by Sadr to end the demonstration. Earlier in the day, Sadr had read a statement inside a Shiite shrine urging U.S. forces to leave the city and allow Iraqis to deal with security.
Annan's report also urges the United States and Britain to "set out a clear and specific sequence of events leading to the end of military occupation," and a "clear timetable leafing to the full restoration of sovereignty."

It appears that UNSC stamp of approval should be coming soon. The article refers to this opening the door for other nations to be able to contribute troops.
