Khartoum - Sudan says it is disappointed with a U.N. resolution that threatens sanctions if it does not stop violence in the western Darfur region, adding it is resentful of the world body. "The resolution did not give adequate recognition of the efforts of the Sudanese government," said Ibrahim Ahmed Omar, head of the ruling National Congress party. Tehran - Iran rejected Sunday a U.N. resolution calling on it to freeze uranium enrichment activities and threatened to stop snap checks of its atomic facilities if its case were sent to the U.N. Security Council. Washington says Iran plans to use enriched uranium to make nuclear weapons, but Tehran says its nuclear program is dedicated solely to generating electricity. Pensacola, Florida - President Bush on Sunday returned to hurricane-ravaged Florida to witness the devastation wrought by Hurricane Ivan and comfort storm victims in a campaign battleground state. Baghdad - Militants threatened to decapitate two Americans and a Briton being held hostage unless their demands were met within 48 hours. The threat came in a video purportedly from a militant group linked to al-Qaida that showed Americans Jack Hensley and Eugene Armstrong and Briton Kenneth Bigley, the first word of their fate since the three construction workers were abducted in Baghdad three days ago.
