(2003-03-07) -- The United States and the United Kingdom introduced a resolution in the United Nations Security Council today calling for a military strike against France as retribution for any future terror attacks by Saddam Hussein's regime.
The resolution follows the U.S. policy of attacking those who harbor terrorists.
In September 2001, on Meet the Press, Vice President Dick Cheney said the U.S. is determined to "go after those nations and organizations and people that lend support to these terrorist operators."
"...if you provide sanctuary to terrorists," Mr. Cheney said, "you face the full wrath of the United States of America...we will, in fact, aggressively go after these nations to make certain that they cease and desist from providing support for these kinds of organizations."
Under that policy, since Iraq is classified as a terrorist government, the U.S. would be justified in attacking France, Germany, Russia and others immediately.
However, today U.S. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld said, "We want peace with Old Europe and her allies."
Therefore, he said, the Bush administration has decided to work through the United Nations for a multilateral solution, with a deadline for France and others to stop protecting Mr. Hussein's terroristic regime.
"In any case," Mr. Rumsfeld said , "If the U.N. won't act, we will lead a coalition of the willing to make sure they no longer lend support to these terrorists."
