WORLD iraqi parliament rejects resolution on weapons
BAGHDAD, Iraq — Iraqi lawmakers denounced a tough, new U.N. resolution on weapons inspections yesterday as dishonest, provocative and worthy of rejection — despite the risk of war. But parliament said it ultimately would trust whatever President Saddam Hussein decides.
One after the other, senior lawmakers rejected the resolution, the latest in a long effort to ensure Iraq scraps its weapons of mass destruction. This time, however, the United States and Britain have made clear they will attack Iraq if it does not fully comply.
Saddam has used parliament's action as cover for difficult decisions in the past, and harsh rhetoric does not necessarily mean parliament will reject the proposal. Saddam ordered parliament to recommend a formal response, and lawmakers were expected to vote on recommendations for the Iraqi leadership today.
According to the resolution, Iraq has until Friday to accept or reject the resolution, approved unanimously last week by the U.N. Security Council.
If Saddam fails to follow through, a Pentagon plan calls for more than 200,000 troops to invade Iraq.
Israeli troops invade Palestinian refugee camp
JERUSALEM—Dozens of Israeli tanks swept into a Palestinian refugee camp in the northern West Bank early today. Palestinian security officials said, as Israel responded to a Palestinian shooting rampage that killed five people, including a mother and her two young sons.
Yesterday in the second straight day of violence to take children's lives, the 2-year-old Palestinian boy was killed as he played ball in the Gaza town of Rafah. Palestinians said Israeli soldiers fired the shots, but Israel said its forces had returned fire and knew of no casualties.
No immediate clashes or injuries were reported in the Israeli incursion, and it did not appear that the operation was fully under way, security officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity.
The refugee camp is thought to be a hotbed of the Al Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade, a militia with ties to Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat's Fatah movement, which claimed responsibility for Sunday's shooting in the nearby communal farm of Kibbutz Metzer — a community that symbolized Jewish-Arab coexistence.
STATE Kline officially appointed new attorney general
OLATHE — A count of provisional ballots in Johnson County yesterday widened Republican Phill Kline's narrow lead in the attorney general's race, leading one GOP official to declare victory even as Kline himself declined to call the race over.
"I'm waiting until the secretary of state certifies, but the numbers look very good for us now," Kline said.
The gap between Kline and Biggs appeared to grow to 4,166 votes yesterday, with results from 77 of 105 counties certified.
With Kline's lead past 4,000, it seemed unlikely that provisional ballots in the remaining 28 counties would erase his lead, even though Shawnee and Sedgwick counties, which had about 2,400 provisional ballots in all, had yet to certify their results.
