My memory, fuzzy as it is, remembers the Administration obtaining the Security Council vote. I'll let you check the web , a Kofi Annan comment doesn't mean it didn't happen.

gee, i remember u.n. vote going along with invasion. iraq was not in compliance after numerous attempts to have them give up wmd and open up to inspections etc.

Kofi is a loser. the un security counsel was bribed by Saddam , Iraq officials even tells us the same thing. Billions are being ripped off by un and they blame fox news for the problems. Kofi still hasn't implemented the recommended changes to correct many problems identified in un.

the place is a pit of snakes.

Actually, the U.S. did try to get U.N. Security Council to go along with an invasion of Iraq. The result of that effort was U.N. resolution 1441.

You not wanting anyone siting that resolution is ridiculous.

Surely you remember the US did not attempt to get a U.N. Security Council resolution authorizing military force,
