Powell urges long US lead for Iraq disarmament
Secretary of State Powell told lawmakers the United States should be prepared for a long-term commitment in Iraq and offered no war cost estimates. He outlined plans to remove Saddam Hussein and top aides, then install a temporary U.S. or international leadership before transferring power to Iraqis. He pressed France and Germany to support or risk delaying disarmament while new Blix ElBaradei findings prompt UN action.
