The war to remove Saddammmnn is never going to be a UN war. GWB shamed the UN into sending back the inspecters and Powell today made the case that the bastard has to go. The neat thing is that we are forcing the UN into backing our play. Why is that important? It shuts up the idiots here and more importantly, helps other countries support us. Not a bad deal,huh?

No, Powell made the case that Iraq is in material breach of 1441.

No, a VERY bad deal. It places the UN sovereign over the internal affairs of a nation. That sets the UN up as a government. It's a very bad precedent.

This needs to be handled nation to nation. If there are allies who want to go with us, fine. I want no part of a UN action.
