No, we still do not have legitimacy because we went for a meaningless UN resolution that does nothing to hand power over to the UN. You cannot expect other countries to come in and clean up our mess on the basis of the feeble resolution passed by the UN at this stage of the game, after the fact. We are an army of occupation and nobody else (in large enough numbers to matter) wants anything to do with this mess. As for "my side", I am on the side of the Troops in Iraq, I am on the side of the national security of the United States of America. And yes, the troops and the country lost. But the patriotic thing to do is to let people know the truth about what happened -- that the war was sold on a slippery slope of lies and that the war as it goes on today is being fought on the backs of our troops because this administration in Washington cannot muster the international support needed to stabilize Iraq NOW.
