No "modalities." No negotiations. No deals. Dare France and Russia to veto.

If they do, if they dare so naked a display of cynicism, we then simply declare that the Security Council has demonstrated its utter bankruptcy and forfeited all moral authority -- ...
We then ostentatiously stand up, walk out and declare the sanctions dead. We then open the oil spigots and rebuild Iraq.

It is the right thing to do. It is the only thing to do.


I absolutely, positively agree. And we must also kick the UN out of the USA just as France kicked NATO out of Paris 40 years ago.

As GWB said, "You are either with us or you are with the terrorists." Clearly France is not only not part of the solution, they are now part of the problem.

Removing the UN from NYC will eliminate a substantial means of support to terrorists within the US. Support that operates under the protection of diplomatic immunity and the security of the NYC Police Dept.

Perhaps the reason that the French, German and Russians don't want the sanctions lifted is that they know that Saddam had WMD because they sold them to him.
