On Thursday night, Powell, who spoke with quiet intensity, insisted a second UN resolution did not need to authorise the use of force. That hurdle had already been crossed, Powell indicated.

And what happens if the resolution is vetoed by France or another country?

Does that make the offer of 21 days null and void?

Sounds like an interesting game of poker.

Hussain is shooting craps.

Germany, France, turkey, and others are playing poker.

Yeah, I think they are counting on France to veto the resolution and they will go at the beginning of the month. Smart move.

It's put up or shut up time for France.
