Will America fight an illegal war? 1.) You have to a legal statute govening use of force for there be an "illegal war".. 2.) The closest thing to this is the United Nations and Chapter VI resolutions. 3.) And it can hardly be "illegal" to enforce those resolutions if other UN members are not willing to do so. 4.) Thus, any war against Iraq is NOT illegal, since they have violated each and every one of the binding resolutions (statutes) from 1991. Bottom line.. what is law without the will or ability to enforce them.. Is it "illegal" to declare international "indictments" and not follow through on prosecuting?? Is it fair to society at large to put someone on "probation" and then not enforce the penalty when that person blatantly defies the terms of their probation??
