"If Saddam Hussein does not comply to the detail of the resolution, we will lead a coalition to disarm him," Mr Bush said.

He dismissed the Baghdad parliament's vote, saying there was no democracy in Iraq.

"This guy [Saddam Hussein] is a dictator, ... we'd like to see what he says," Mr Bush said.

Defiance

The Iraqi president has until Friday to make up his mind on the resolution, which demands Iraq submit a detailed list of its arms and allow inspectors complete access to all suspected weapons' sites

Saddam's son Uday largely controls the media

Iraqi deputies had made clear their hostility to the resolution in a first day of debate on Monday, and the parliament's foreign relations committee recommended that it be rejected.

After the vote, Parliamentary Speaker Saadun Hammadi said the country was now preparing for war.

He said Iraq would not turn the other cheek, and would protect its independence.

The BBC's Caroline Hawley in Baghdad says Iraqis view the terms under which the UN weapons inspectors would operate as deeply humiliating and provocative.

One deputy said the resolution was a minefield without a map.

Gone underground?

Uday Hussein's statement came on the heels of a French warning about the consequences of a rejection. France, a member of the UN Security Council, has previously argued that Baghdad should not be automatically attacked if it fails to meet the terms of the resolution.

Next steps

Iraq must confirm whether it will "comply fully" with the resolution by Friday Iraq then has 30 days to reveal all programmes, plants and materials which could be used for weapons production Inspectors must be allowed to resume checks within 45 days of resolution being passed Thereafter, inspectors have 60 days to report back to the Security Council but may report violations earlier Click here for the timetable

"If Saddam Hussein does not comply, if he does not satisfy his obligations, there will obviously be a use of force," French Foreign Minister Dominique de Villepin said.

"We can now expect that any decision on force would be made unanimously," he added following the UN Security Council's adoption of the new resolution.

It is the strongest indication from France to date that it would support military action, provided it is approved by the UN Security Council and not a unilateral campaign by the United States.

Meanwhile, US Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, has said he doubts that Saddam Hussein would agree to give up his weapons programmes.

Mr Rumsfeld told reporters that the Iraqi leader had already started hiding weapons at secret sites across the country, including in underground locations.

"They've gone so far underground that the only way they can be found is through defectors," he said.
