International Law and Iraq

[Drjones]

What's the deal?

I hear all this talk (from libs...who else?) about how "the US is breaking international law by going to war with Iraq" blah blah blah.

What's the real story?

The deal?

They hate president bush. That's all you really need to know.

(If they were really concerned about 'international law', ask them why no such argument was offered during Clinton's military adventures.)

Don't fall for all the "resolutions" and their red-herrings. We had the right under international law to go in once they broke their cease-fire agreement. Some of the lib arguments contain some truth if you are willing to overlook that one inconvenient fact.

They failed to live up to the obligations under the ceasefire ending Gulf I, we had the inherent right to go back in, resume hostilities and end the agression.
