US could unveil evidence against Iraq

Carrying the US case against Saddam Hussein, Secretary of State Colin Powell tonight headed to Africa for a world summit where he was expected to face criticism from foreign leaders upset by the Bush administration’s threats to attack Iraq.

The Earth Summit in Johannesburg gives Powell a chance to talk with world leaders about Iraq, a subject on which he has been notably quiet while President George Bush’s other foreign policy advisers have argued loudly for military action to oust Saddam from power.
