U.S. pushes seven day Iraq disarm deadline at U.N.
The United States and Britain seek a U.N. resolution setting a seven day deadline for Saddam Hussein to disarm and allow searches of his palaces for weapons. Bush backs the move but faces resistance from France and others who favor inspections before threats of force. The plan threatens "all necessary means" if Iraq defies the order, while Congress debates authority for force.
