I would be interested in anything you can point to that demonstrates that the United Nations Security Council authorized the Iraq invasion in 2003. Thanks in advance.
does the phrases "relevant subesquent resolutions" mean anything to you? This has been shown in thread after thread on here. Earlier resolutions authorized the use of force in all subsequent relevant resolutions and 1441 specifically referenced earlier resolutions that authorized the use of force.
UNSC reso 1441 said:Recalling all its previous relevant resolutions, in particular its resolutions 661 (1990) of 6 August 1990, 678 (1990) of 29 November 1990, 686 (1991) of 2 March 1991, 687 (1991) of 3 April 1991, 688 (1991) of 5 April 1991, 707 (1991) of 15 August 1991, 715 (1991) of 11 October 1991, 986 (1995) of 14 April 1995, and 1284 (1999) of 17 December 1999, and all the relevant statements of its President,
UNSC reso 678; first two operative clauses said:Acting under Chapter VII of the Charter,
1. Demands that Iraq comply fully with resolution 660 (1990) and all subsequent relevant resolutions, and decides, while maintaining all its decisions, to allow Iraq one final opportunity, as a pause of goodwil, to do so;
2. Authorizes Member States co-operating with the Government of Kuwait, unless Iraq on or before 15 January 1991 fully implements, as set forth in paragraph 1 above, the above-mentioned resolutions, to use all necessary means to uphold and implement resolution 660 (1990) and all subsequent relevant resolutions and to restore international peace and security in the area;
Thanks for playing...
