You remember correctly. Resolution 1441 was interpreted by the U.S. and its allies to mean they had permission to take the steps necessary to inflict "serious consequences" upon the regime in Iraq. And everyone knows it. M On November 8, 2002, the UN passed Resolution 1441 urging Iraq to disarm or face "serious consequences". The resolution passed with a 15 to 0 vote, supported by Russia, China and France, and Arab countries like Syria. This gave this resolution wider support than even the 1990 Gulf War resolution. Although the Iraqi parliament voted against honoring the UN resolution, Iraqi President Saddam Hussein agreed to honor it. en.wikipedia.org
