News analysis: worldwide protests against war in Iraq may sway public opinion and have political implications for countries that support US, but there appears to be little indication that Bush administration can be moved in its determination to go to war, even as it has lost some of momentum gained after Sec of State Colin Powell's speech to Security Council; as relations between US and Europe continue to deteriorate, swell of popular opposition to war across Europe as well as hawkish jibes from Defense Sec Donald Rumsfeld and others have only roiled waters further; statement from weapons inspector Hans Blix that there has been some movement toward disarmament compounds issue and gives ammunition to Security Council and others calling for restraint; finally, Powell's most recent promise of intelligence on connections between Iraq and Al Qaeda did not materialize, leaving overall question about why action should be taken now unanswered; photo (M)

Profile of Italy Prime Min Silvio Berlusconi, one of Europe's most unusual and flamboyant leaders, media magnate and political titan who has amassed, or at least sought, astonishing degree of power, yet always seems to be dancing one small step ahead of disaster; he remains Italy's richest man, holding tight to business interests that include three of state's seven national television stations; his myriad entanglements constantly--and inevitably--raise questions about motives behind legislation and threaten to trip him up; Berlusconi has hand in nearly every form of media through his company Fininvest, either directly or through its ownership of media conglomerate Mediaset; Berlusconi, repeatedly charged with corruption, has always prevailed in the end; photos with Pres Bush, British Prime Min Tony Blair and Russia Pres Putin; table shows Berlusconi's business interests (L)
