"What happens in the future if China or Russia decide that some other country is a threat to them, and they decide to go to war?" asked an editor for a German publishing company attending an anti-war protest in Munich last weekend. "What are you going to do then?"

If there is a binding UN resolution against those states compelling them to disarm and reveal all, then I'd say we're likely to stand by them...

I believe that maybe the UN should think twice about passing binding resolutions it has no willingness to enforce. After all, where was France's veto during the last 17 UNSC resolutions against Saddam??

And I would opine that by having failed to enforce these resolutions, the UNSC has abused the intent of the UN charter.
