I'd challenge anyone to come up with outright illegalities on his or his administration's part.

Congress authorized the use of force, which is all that the United States Constitution requires.

The US has always taken the position that we have the right to preserve our own security and the security of our allies, regardless of UN resolutions. (See, e.g., Israel.)

Thus, no "illegality" from the US point of view.

But no express UN authorization, which is a violation of UN rules.

But we don't need no stinking UN rules. We're the biggest and the baddest honcho on the block, and nobody can stand in our way.
