"
Iraq war was illegal and breached UN charter, says Annan
Ewen MacAskill and Julian Borger in Washington
Wed 15 Sep 2004 21.28 EDTFirst published on Wed 15 Sep 2004 21.28 EDT
The United Nations secretary general, Kofi Annan, declared explicitly for the first time last night that the US-led war on Iraq was illegal.
Mr Annan said that the invasion was not sanctioned by the UN security council or in accordance with the UN's founding charter. In an interview with the BBC World Service broadcast last night, he was asked outright if the war was illegal. He replied: "Yes, if you wish."
He then added unequivocally: "I have indicated it was not in conformity with the UN charter. From our point of view and from the charter point of view it was illegal."
Mr Annan has until now kept a tactful silence and his intervention at this point undermines the argument pushed by Tony Blair that the war was legitimised by security council resolutions."
So you’re just going to gloss over the years of conservatives praising Putin and demonizing the Syrian rebels? The years of defending Assad?Trump ran on patting that tyrant on the head and letting Russia and Iran decide what should happen in Syria. You voted for that.These threads are hilarious. Russia is stepping up their defense for a tyrant who uses chemical weapons on his own civilians, and the left is freaking out. Meanwhile the genocidal psychopathic leftists here keep murdering babies through abortion.
Maybe Trump should order some missile strikes on the abortion clinics too while we're at it. It's not like we're going to run out of cruise missiles.
Please keep believing that, would you? That's why you Democrats are destined to lose again in 2020.
1991?Iraq violated the cease fire-- we had every right and duty to finish it--it's that simple
U.S. Cites 1991 U.N. Cease-Fire Resolution as the Legal Basis for Its Invasion
Long list of Saddam's violations
you don't let a country violate a cease fire/armistice/AGREEMENT --like hitler did
look what happened when no one did anything when hitler violated the armistice
gerbreaks
also -just like hitler, Saddam gassed/murdered his own people
it wasn't an invasion you liar !!!!!!!!! ---but a continuation of PG1
learn some history before you post crap
what do you not understand about a ceasefire AGREEMENT?? if the signer [ Iraq ] does not abide by the AGREEMENT, the ceasefire is null and void--the war CONTINUES--legallyWhen one country illegally attacks another country, it's an invasion. Like Iraq attacking Kuwait.see post # 14The Iraq invasion in 2003 was illegal.
it wasn't an invasion--sorry
Remember, when Iraq invaded Kuwait, Bush Sr. chased them back into Iraq. And rightfully so. We had treaties with Kuwait.
But he stopped at the border.
And you know, that being a former WWII officer and a hero, he didn't just walk away from Iraq. He left sanctions in place, a watchful military and satellites overhead to monitor Iraqi actions. PERIOD!
What the GOP did to the economy was bad enough, but the shambles they left the military and the Middle East were criminal. I have always felt Obama's big mistake was that he didn't bring Bush and Cheney and other members of that wicked cabal up on charges.
Obama was handed a wrecked economy and a Middle East debacle and from what I've seen, he actually did turn a sow's ear into a silk purse.
Instead of attacking Obama, certain members of the GOP should be happy he didn't bring them up on charges. Maybe if he had, they wouldn't be acting the fools they are today.

That was not the only time. Actually the US was routinely bombing Iraq when Bill Clinton was president, I think monthly at least but usually weekly or sometimes more often.
I think I had a flyer about it from some peace group, I can't find that data on the net right now.

Last I checked, troll, it was very much a bipartisan effort.

No -- he just starved and sickened a couple hundred thousand Iraqis to death and bombed them nearly daily. And left them locked up with a madman for 8 years with no National economy.... And no solution...
So you’re just going to gloss over the years of conservatives praising Putin and demonizing the Syrian rebels? The years of defending Assad?Trump ran on patting that tyrant on the head and letting Russia and Iran decide what should happen in Syria. You voted for that.These threads are hilarious. Russia is stepping up their defense for a tyrant who uses chemical weapons on his own civilians, and the left is freaking out. Meanwhile the genocidal psychopathic leftists here keep murdering babies through abortion.
Maybe Trump should order some missile strikes on the abortion clinics too while we're at it. It's not like we're going to run out of cruise missiles.
Please keep believing that, would you? That's why you Democrats are destined to lose again in 2020.

So bombing and invading their country was better?
Thank God Bush got something out of it.
He created Isis.

Nobody I know is defending Assad.. We' ve TRIED to make democracy bloom and turn donkeys into Unicorns in about 4 or 5 Arab countries now by REMOVING or helping to remove dictators and thugs. How'd that work out? What's the fucking score on that?
They NEED shotgun waving deranged madmen to keep them from killing each other. We don't HAVE to like them. But we damn well need to stop JUDGING them and blowing up their countries just to make things worse.
