Promises to Iraq

It seems there is lots on confusion amongst the populace of Iraq. No one know what is happening or when they'll have a government on their own. There's also a lot of anti-US/British sentiment arising from this confusion.

It seems strange that Bush or Blair has not broadcast directly to the Iraqis a number of promises in terms of boundary conditions that the coalition will operate under. I'm not talking about detail but more gneral promises eg, "The coalition promises to create a democratic Iraqi governement within election in 6 months" or "The oil is your oil - any profit is going in to a trust fund for the Iraqi governemnt"

A lot have this had been said but via the media which always puts its own spin on it - why doesn't it get said directly to the Iraqi people?? Would have thought this would be a good thing to do.
