Re: [casi] Annan - A US Attack Outside the Council Would Violate the UN Charter




[ Presenting plain-text part of multi-format email ]


But what the United Nations prepared to DO about it when the U.S. does launch
an attack outside the council?

The expectation from the Bush U.S. side is that the UN/member states will
complain, but eventually they will follow behind and see what scraps they can
pick up for themselves.

Just as the U.S. is threatening to punish nations that don't support it,
there should be some measured response to U.S. violations.

The United Nations has "allowed" the U.S. to use its veto with regards to
Israel whenever possible, and now more nations can't muster up a NO to this
Iraq issue because of fear of offending the U.S.?
