deadline

British media reports that Prime Minister Tony Blair's government is working behind the scenes on a compromise amendment to the U.S.-backed resolution on Iraq. The amendment would give Iraq a little more time and would set a deadline.

What sort of deadline? A deadline for compliance with inspectors. Aside from the fact that he may be hiding weapons, how is he not complying now?

Comply with what, exactly?

I think some countries believe he is still hiding weapons. Even if he did come up with a boatload for the inspectors to destroy, I suspect it wouldn't be enough. Some countries want war, and to remove Saddam from power.
