Much longer, and extensively URL embedded piece by Matt Welch in an online journalism review edited by Robert Scheer, http://www.ojr.org/ojr/world_reports/1017959915.php
Googling, "Matt Welch Iraq, " found a post on the UK CASI (Coalition Against Sanctions on Iraq) listserv (which when I've skimmed in the past is much more careful than say ViTW or IAC on this) s/b worth a look see.
Also, this, has the David Cortright piece from The Nation and other sources, http://www.backflip.com/members/thomasn528/10232759/page=1/sort=1 Michael Pugliese
