Saddam has no leverage on negotiating.  He's already tried the deal with 
inpsections of just the sites they agree to, and that will not be permitted this time.  
Powell is at the UN this week working on a resolution.  I think they want to have 
something done within 10 days or so.  You will see how serious the US is when we 
see the wording of the resolution, but I think it is going to be very specific, and allow 
for the use of force if inspectors are hundered in any way.  I get the idea Bush 
means what he says, just consider where the Taliban are right now.   This is what 
Bush said this weekend -

"This is a chance, he said, "for the United Nations to show some backbone 
and resolve as we confront the challenges of the 21st century." 

"Make no mistake about it, if we have to do deal with the problem, we'll deal 
with it," Bush said
