What would a law mean if it wasn't held up in court?
Are people going to take it seriously?
This is on a much bigger scale and I knew that this flaw in my reasoning would be pointed out. They shouldnt follow this resolution just because the US tells them too. We are talking countries not individuals. America stands for equality of the individual but I guess equality of countries is not necessary.
And you're right. They don't have to follow the resolution and they aren't. That's fine and dandy. Now the US is acting alone because the UN is insignifcant right now. The US doesn't have to follow the UN either. What is the problem?
I am assuming they will defend themselves. There is nothing wrong with that. The difference is that when the fighting is done, the people will be given their rights to self govern.
The UN is now becoming null due to some resolution. We cant respect these other countries and give them an opportunity to provide an alternate resolution instead of giving them an ultimatum if they are with us or against us. The US is trying to hard to play puppet master for all these other countries.
yannic - excellent point. to elaborate, no, the northern alliance is a group composed of brutal warlords, many of which who are left over from the 80's when the soviets attacked. some of these guys were trained with bin laden.

I said on page 3 wrote:united nations sanctions, supported by and held in place by the americans, are weakinging the iraqui people, preventing any useful, wide scale revolutionary action.
we know there are revolutionary groups in iraq right now, and in fact these revolutionary groups are engaged in armed conflicts with the iraqui government [ source ]
we further know that with support from the americans, revolutionary groups of this nature are capable of defeating existing, more powerful regimes. for example, the resistance in afghanistan against the soviets in the 80's.
so. why then does the american government not offer support in the way of arms and money to these groups, while simultaneously lifting the sanctions and allowing the iraqui citizens to install their own new government?

terrorist trained brutal warlords, that actually have their own elections and love to expirament with democracy. yeah, they're just as bad as OBL himself.
Whenever death may surprise us, let it be welcome if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.

sadly, there's really not alot of information available on them these days. most of what i've read i've got from feminist websites about how these guys treat women as bad or worse as the last guys.
