No, they're going to give the obstructionists a chance to hop on the moving train before it pulls out of the station. If they don't jump they miss the ride.

Bush: "Tomorrow is the day when we find if diplomacy can work".

Is that clear enough?

I think that was a throw away line. None of these leaders really expect the UN to be serious... I think its more in the nature of a last minute appeal to the French and the others to avoid wrecking the UN. More to the point, the UN looks finished unless the French have a deathbed conversion tomorrow which I don't expect unless Chiraq wants to do a humiliating climbdown from the corner he painted himself and his country into.
