His is no "interpretation" or "opinion." His statement is based on facts which are so easily pushed aside and/or forgotten by those that do/did not support President Bush and the coalition.

I assume the "several members" you refer to are China, Russia and France? Russia and France were on the take and have been totally discredited and China didn't want the U.S. flexing its muscles.

Who's "pretending", and who's "everyone?" I really don't know who you are talking about? Eventually the President went ahead without U.N. approval and cooperation.......although lord knows he tried.

On November 8, 2002, the UN passed Resolution 1441 urging Iraq to disarm or face "serious consequences". The resolution passed with a 15 to 0 vote, supported by Russia, China and France, and Arab countries like Syria. This gave this resolution wider support than even the 1990 Gulf War resolution. Although the Iraqi parliament voted against honoring the UN resolution, Iraqi President Saddam Hussein agreed to honor it.
