Chief United Nations weapons inspector Hans Blix is reporting to the United Nations Security Council today. The foreign ministers of all five permanent council members and many of the 10 other members will attend, including Secretary of State General Colin Powell. Both the domestic and international media are reporting the meeting is unlikely to resolve the deepening split over the issue of a U.S. first-strike attack on Iraq. France, Russia, China and Germany are opposing the U.S. and Britain. The Christian Science Monitor reports some nations see the meeting as a pivotal moment in the battle to curb American power.
