"My conclusion about that is that it did not want other countries demanding enforcing Human Rights resolutions on Israel treatment of Palestinians."

Forget that issue for one sec. Have to figure with Iraq chairing human rights commission and i forget what Libya is chairing, some day ludicrous charges will be made and enforcement even in the US will be attempted. That fear goes well beyond middle east nations and imo is a justified one.
Now to your point that wmds shouldnt have been the issue to remove saddam, i disagree. It is unsustainable policy for the US to accept a military role to remove all horrible governments. That will ultimately sap our strength and not act in our national interest. WMDs tipped it for saddam. Instability in europe tipped it for serbia. There have to be reasons. So, although i am sympathetic, i have to respectfully disagree with you and JB. mike
