Two Iraq Proposals on TableU.S., Britain, Spain submit resolution that refers to 'serious consequences'; France, Russia, Germany circulate memo calling for more time for inspections

Also, there's this - Hussein Indicates He Won't Destroy Missiles - which puts him in direct opposition to the UN and not just the US. If France and Germany continue playing defense, that will make clear that they are only interested in stopping action against Iraq, not disarming Iraq, since we have here a clear case where giving the inspections more time won't accomplish anything other than giving a more detailed catalog of the ways in which Hussein thumbs his nose at the world. And France and Germany will be right there with him if they don't alter their positions.
