The U.N. Security Council unanimously passes a resolution calling on Iraq to disarm and to allow new weapons inspections. It gives Iraq one last chance to eliminate weapons of mass destruction or face what are called "serious consequences." President Bush applauds the move. NPR's Bob Edwards speaks to NPR's Vicky O'Hara.
