OK, so you killed less people in this failed war for oil than in other wars. Congratulations. Maybe if you only kill a few hundred thousand people then it doesn't really count.
Really? Really? we're going to be THAT cynical "Well everyone else violates UN resolutions".....well not everyone else was already on the shit list to begin with.
UN Security Council Resolution 1441 passed by a
UNANIMOUS 15-0 vote (wider support than even was given to the Persian Gulf War)
The ambassador for the United States, John Negroponte, said:
“This resolution contains no "hidden triggers" and no "automaticity" with respect to the use of force. If there is a further Iraqi breach, reported to the Council by UNMOVIC, the IAEA or a Member State, the matter will return to the Council for discussions as required in paragraph 12. The resolution makes clear that any Iraqi failure to comply is unacceptable and that Iraq must be disarmed. And, one way or another, Iraq will be disarmed.
If the Security Council fails to act decisively in the event of further Iraqi violations, this resolution does not constrain any Member State from acting to defend itself against the threat posed by Iraq or to enforce relevant United Nations resolutions and protect world peace and security
"Failed war for oil"....you mean where the US took over an entire country in less than a month? And don't you a worthless self loathing Brit preach to ME about illegal wars you jackass. Your dumb fucking country got the Middle East drawn out this way and if that wasn't enough England got the US involved in the Iranian Revolution and what do we have to show for it? A bunch of effete little cocksuckers who bemoan the United States getting involved in other countries.....well I'm sorry, I guess that was only OK when you guys did it....a thousand pardons
