02/24/2003 Entry: "New US, UK Resolution Says Iraq Failed to Disarm"

"UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - The United States and Britain circulated a new U.N. resolution on Monday that sets the stage for war with Iraq by declaring Baghdad had failed to take advantage of its final opportunity to disarm peacefully.

"But no vote on the document was expected for two weeks at the Security Council, where most members at this stage oppose a swift move to war.

"The move opened an intensive period of diplomacy. France and Germany came out strongly against a new resolution and a shift to a "logic of war," circulating a rival proposal which would extend U.N. inspections for at least four months.

"The 12-paragraph draft resolution, obtained by Reuters, does not have a deadline and says simply that the Council 'decides that Iraq has failed to take the final opportunity afforded to it in resolution 1441.'"

So, did I imagine all those no war in Iraq protests on Feb 15 in the US and the UK or what?

A million+ protesters in the streets of London is a pretty big clue, Mr. Blair. I mention this because of the two of you, um, world leaders, you're the one with the most salvage potential.
