If someone is holding a cocked, loaded gun to my head -- I'm not gonna wait for an 18th UN resolution before I take definitive action to protect myself.

Because our President wanted the world to know that we were playing by "the rules." It's all about being PC--don't you know? (/sarcasm)

Why would we have waited 12 years for Iraq to comply with the terms of the ceasefire agreement if we thought the threat was imminent. Last time I checked the ceasefire agreement said disarm NOW or else.

Imminent is relative. Patience ran out.
