Amazing.
Saddam knew he could play France and Russia against the US. If the world had been able to show a united front (France and Russia not in Saddam's pocket) then Saddam would've been forced to comply with 1441.
That's what I'm saying, and it has nothing whatsoever to do with having it both ways or whatever you are trying to say.
You guys are having a very, very difficult time getting past your preconcieved notions about what I believe and who I support and for what I support them.

Russia and France agreeing with the US wasn't going to make Saddam do anything. Any increased sanctions or end of relief operations wasn't going to hurt Saddam, only the Iraqi people.
