The consequences of the President's decision to violate his own public pledge to seek a second UN resolution before waging war are certain to be grave, if not immediate. By declaring, in effect, that such resolutions mean whatever we say they mean – and that we can do so because of our superiority in arms – we are tempting tyrants from China to Pakistan to North Korea to do likewise.

International law may sound like the arcane obsession of bureaucrats in striped pants, but it is what protects us from a permanent condition of global war and insecurity.
There can be little doubt that Bush has betrayed the trust of allies – including the hapless Tony Blair – who believed that he was serious about the process commenced by the passage of Resolution 1441.
