Post #90,093 by Brandioch 3/21/03 2:39:41 PM Reply	Then why is the US afraid of it? Why did the US refuse to put its resolution up for a vote? Why is the US fighting the meeting? :) The UN has shown its utter lack of teeth; unless it pulls a rabbit out of its hat, it'll become irrelevant. Ah, the old, "if it ain't military force, it ain't important". Well, the world is a little bit more complicated than that. The UN cannot stop the US from invading a defeated country. But that war will not last forever. Eventually, the US will have to trade with the rest of the world.

Well those "unwilling" countries were perfectly willing to violate their own embargo with Iraq...so bring on the sanctions baby...might lower our balance of trade payments.

Post #90,146 by Brandioch 3/21/03 4:28:26 PM Reply	I'll explain this VERY slowly for you. #1. Iraq was NOT talking about INVADING any other country. #2. Turkey IS talking about INVADING another country. #3. You (Scott) do NOT understand the difference between not invading and invading. #4. An INVASION needs to be met with MILITARY force. #5. You (Scott) are still operating under the false impression that Iraq was attacking another country.
