Everything we're doing in Iraq today is blessed by UNSC Res. 1546:

un.org

The Iraqi interim government is recognized by the UN and every government in the world. UNSC Resolution 1546 strongly endorses our current efforts to establish democracy in Iraq. It is true that the UN did not bless the invasion of Iraq. But that is not the case with what is going on there now. We are currently fulfilling the expressed will of the UN. Item 1 and 4 endorse the current interim government and the plans for elections. Item 9, 10, and 14 authorizes the multinational force (which happens to be US and our coalition partners) to maintain security until Iraq's new security forces can handle that. Item 15 requests other countries to join the coalition. Item 12 is the exit strategy for the multinational force. Item 17 condemns the activities of the "insurgents".
