: hi,
: 1.Britian "sexed up" its case on Iraq.
: 2.The death of Uday and Qusay would not "snuff out" the guerilla insurgency.
: thank you.
Sex up = make more attractive, appealing, or exciting--or, in this case, convincing.
Snuff out = kill, destroy. Used literally, it means to extinguish the flame of a candle.
