All of this would be relevant to making the case for the UN to act. But that is not the case the US made -- far from it. The US instead attempted to make a case that would provide cover for unilateral US invasion. The US failed to make its case and the UN rightly refused to have the US dictate terms to the UN. It was our failure to work within the UN, and not the failure of the UN, that led to the US fighting a war in violation of the UN Charter. Had the US had the courage and wisdom to act within the UN and make its case accordingly, we would have a chance at peace, security and possibly even democracy in Iraq. The actions of the US robbed Iraq of those opportunities.
