Just hours earlier, France indicated it would approve when one word in a key paragraph was changed from "or" to "and," closing the loophole Paris perceived that could allow the use of force without a council discussion. Russia soon followed suit.

Thanks Daz!

On Weds. in my great issues in humanities class we had a HUGE debate for the whole hour about the difference between "and" and "or." I'm going to bring this in today as a follow-up Image

How exactly do you debate the difference of 'And' and 'Or'?

I take it there were no programmers or math majors in your class? "And" and "or" are pretty clear cut...

T || T == T
T || F == T
F || T == T
F || F == F

T && T == T
T && F == F
F && T == F
F && F == F

What is there to debate?

2 bits difference.
