“Grand master
that doesn’t go along with us will
be paying a very heavy price,’"
said one Mexican diplomat, who
spoke on condition of anonymit),
To get its resolution througi,
the United States must secure
nine votes in the 15 member
council while preventing France.
Russia or China — which air
pushing for continued weapons
inspections — from using their
vetoes. The United States anil
Britain hold the two other vetoes.
On Saturday, Bush brushed
aside doubts about whether the
resolution could overcome the
deep divisions within the coun
cil, telling reporters “wearejusi
beginning” to line up allies.
Undersecretary of State John
Bolton will go to Moscow this
week for talks designed to per
suade Russian officials to sup
port the U.S.-British resolution.
While Washington and
London believe they already have
the necessary authorization to
forcefully disarm Iraq, many key
allies — Turkey included—have
said a new resolution would help
them overcome opposition at
home. The backing of the council
also would lend international
legitimacy to a war and mean that
Washington could count on the
United Nations to share in the
costs of rebuilding Iraq.
Astin

Summit

saying an attack would be seen
throughout the Islamic world as
“a war against Muslims,” espe
cially since Washington has
been significantly less hawkish
in handling North Korea’s
nuclear program.
“The attack against Iraq will
simply anger more Muslims who
see this as anti-Muslim rather than
anti-terror,” the Malaysian leader
told a forum of business leaders
coinciding with the summit.
“The fact that North Korea’s
open admission that it has
weapons of mass destruction
has met only with mild admon
ishment by the West seems to
prove that indeed it is a war
against Muslims and not against
the fear of possession of
weapons of mass destruction by
the so-called rogue countries,”
Mahathir said.
Mahathir also accused Israel
of seizing upon fears of terrorism
following the Sept. 11 attacks.
“Our national sovereignty is
not a forgone conclusion," k
said.
American culture is visible
everywhere in the world, Astin
said, and Americans should be
aware that what they say has an
impact.
“The first time there was a
microphone put in front of me
(after the success of The
Goonies), I realized I better have
something to say,” he said.
