"Apparently you see no contradiction and lack of legitimacy in seeing the US select only those agreements it wishes to honor while ignoring the rest." So tell me. which agreements have the US ignored? And where in UN Resolution 687 does it say that the US had no right to resume hostilities if Saddam violated the Cease Fire Agreement? "Fact: There was NO reason to terminate inspections. Inspections were working, the CIA report conclusively states this." So you say. If they were working so well, why did the Oil-for-Food scandal happen? If the UN, France, Russia, China & Germany are so righteous & respected, how do you explain their outrageous corruption in taking Saddam's bribes, selling Saddam illegal weapons in direct violation of UN Sanctions they voted into place & why did they accept obscenely lucrative contracts that all together allowed innocent Iraqi's to suffer? All of that money could have provided clean water, food, electricity & health care for the iraqi people. But no, Saddam stole from them, bribed your heroes. Everyone blamed the US, while Saddam, the utterly corrupt UN, France, Russia, China, Germany & a compliant liberal media falsely claimed sanctions were working. They weren't working. Not even close. They only worked in liberal revisionist history, but not in the real world. That is a fact.
