Jack "60-40" Straw is now using the "M" word. Do tell. Straw: Iraq in material breach of UN demands guardian.co.uk Simon Jeffery and agencies Tuesday January 28, 2003 The foreign secretary, Jack Straw, today said for the first time that Iraq was in "material breach" of UN demands for it to disarm, and conceded that war had become more likely since the beginning of the year. Iraq would be left open to "serious consequences" under the terms of a UN resolution passed in November if the security council was to agree with Mr Straw's opinion. He had previously put the odds on war at 60-40 against, but today said that Iraq's "unbelievable refusal" to comply with the resolution had lessened the chances of a peaceful end to the crisis.
