re: The main exception being the failure of the UN to sanction Iraq war 2 when everything headed in that direction for the preceding 6 months. The US made a decent effort to get the UN behind the idea of enforcing the 14 resolutions Iraq had ignored, and the Frenchies screwed it up. If the UN had agreed to remove Saddam rather than refuse (because he deserved another 3 months???) the chances for democracy in the ME would be that much stronger today.

The Security Council (not the UN) wanted more time to complete inspections. They didn't say no... they said "not now". Bush was in a hurry.

Don't revise history.
