"Hans Blix, the low-key Swede who heads the United Nations weapons inspection team, can hardly be labeled a pawn of the USA. He was appointed to his post in 2000 at the urging of the French and U.N. leaders who rejected the Americans' candidate...."

"...Blix delivered behind closed doors on Monday: The only way to disarm Saddam Hussein is for the U.N. Security Council to rally behind a tough resolution demanding unrestricted inspections backed up by the threat of force."

"That's the same message President Bush has sent the world body, so far without success."
