[casi] US asks UN not to negotiate with Iraq



Dear list,

I was reading this morning that Powell will push Bush's "Declaration of Puprose" with three of the 
UN sec members (Syria, Columbia and Mexico) later today. He just got back in NY from a weekend in 
DC and told Sukru Sina Gurel (turkey) at the meeting that the United States wants complete and full 
support for the US' demands on Iraq.

Saudi Arabia said over the weekend that they would back the US up if the UN approved of the war 
against Iraq. Saudia Arabia had great concern over the casualties resulting from an attack on Iraq, 
but yet now claims to accept it if the UN does?

Iraq has agreed to accept UN arms inspectors only if UN lift the sanctions and the US agrees not to 
attack. Even though this solution is simple, the US still says the UN should not negotiate with 
Iraq. I would hope the UN would not take the advice of the US and resolve the issue rationally.

Forgiveness breaks the chain of causality because he who forgives you -- out of love--takes upon 
himself the consequences of what you have done. Forgiveness, therefore, always entails a sacrifice.
