I recall reading somewhere that there is some sort of UN treaty giving that body authority over situations where one nation uses a WMD against another.

The Cliff's Notes are that if there was an Iraq link to 9/11 and the anthrax attacks, the UN would have jurisdiction because we are signatories to that treaty.

Hence, we're not likely to admit such a link, if it exists.

Anyone else got confirmation on this?

Low IQ = inability to back up an argument. Lack of Courage = unwillingness to back up an argument. Both = GOP in 2003

Boy if they thought moral in the military was low, wait till this gets out to the troops who are sweating their butts of and burying their comrades every dang day and seeing more sent of to a hospital in Germany with no leg or arm or eye. You know what, we sure as heck didn't go to "Free the Iraqi People"! Heck what about doing the entire african and asian continents next. We went to wup butt on governments that support Islamic Terrorism, period. Why can't the Pres pronounce those few words? If I was a democrat I would be saying, "Well the president is confused mentally, first he says one thing, then he says another".
Hey Mr. Presidential advisor, if you can't tell Bush to say something intelligent, just shut the
up! Talk about undermining moral. Next thing this administration will say is that Saddam is bad just missunderstood and that there is room for him in the new Iraq.
Unf
believeable!

I went looking for the treaty you mentioned, but I'd need some help to narrow it down. The U.N. charter gives broad but vague authority to the organization and there are various international arms control treaties which may have some connection with the U.N.
