You know Bush’s “full sovereignty” malarkey isn’t working when the press starts using quotation marks in their headlines :

U.S. to Give ‘Legal’ Custody of Saddam to Iraqis

The United States plans to turn over legal, but not physical, custody of Saddam Hussein and some other prisoners to the Iraqi interim government soon after it takes over on June 30, a senior official said on Tuesday.
. . .
“Because the Iraqi interim government is not currently in a position to safeguard these detainees, at least in large numbers, our current plan calls for the transfer of legal responsibility over a certain number of high-profile detainees…while physical custody will remain with the multinational force in Iraq,” he told reporters.

Maybe it would be easier to report on the Iraqi handover by listing the rights that the Iraqis will have, rather than the endless stream of stories about various rights that are being chipped away by the Americans in charge over there.
