Reply #6: Powell and Bush would like the EU to show their holecard. [View All]

This is multi-level negotiations at its best! To the TV viewer it appears as if Powell is searching for a common ground like any good deal maker would but my bet is the major negotiating is going on behind the scenes right now. THe ambassadors of the countries on the security council are supposed to be going home to thier capital this weekend according to CNN and will return Monday with guidance from their leaders.

I bet Russia, Germany and France cave. Bet the dollars and other incentives Powell and the minions are offering is just too much for these countries to resist. Remember leaders stick together.

Hope I am wrong. Luckily I won't have to wait long to find out!
