*SECURITY COUNCIL VOTES 15-0 TO ADOPT U.S. RESOLUTION ON IRAQ

Bloomberg NE

[MadIvan]

Saddam cannot accept the provisions of this resolution without his regime being fatally weakened. But if he doesn't, America, Britain and Australia will put a bullet in his head. Game, set, match.

RobFromGa's Short Version of The Resolution:

The US (and the rest of the UN) DEMANDS THAT IRAQ:

1. TELL US WITHIN 7 DAYS IF YOU WANT TO GO THRU WITH THIS INSPECTIONS FARCE.
2. IF YOU DON'T WANT TO PLAY ALONG, WE ATTACK.
3. TELL US EVERYTHING YOU HAVE NOW IN POSSESSION.
4: IF YOU LIE TO US, WE ATTACK.
5. Note: in the resolution "MATERIAL BREACH" are the words that mean WE CAN ATTACK. It means we can take whatever action against IRAQ we want-- without further UN decisions.
6. OUR INSPECTORS CAN GO ANYWHERE AT ANY TIME. (including palaces)
7. IF YOU TRY TO STOP THEM, WE ATTACK.
8. WE CAN INTERVIEW ANYONE WE WANT, WITH THEIR ENTIRE FAMILIES, OUTSIDE IRAQ, WITH NO IRAQI OFFICIALS PRESENT-- ANYTIME WE WANT.
9. IF YOU TRY TO STOP THEM, WE ATTACK.
10. AND IF YOU DRAG YOUR FEET OR SCREW AROUND, WE ATTACK.
11. THE USA RESERVES THE RIGHT TO ATTACK UNILATERALLY AT ANY TIME, FOR ANY REASON, WITHOUT UN PERMISSION.

Agree with everything you say.

Tony Blair also deserves some credit. He was the one who put up GW to giving the UN one more chance.

If it had backfired, Blair would have been blamed.

Boo's been shot.

Ohma gaw, ohma gaw! Boo got shot!

Do you have a link to that?!

[cajungirl]

Oh my God, it is GREAT TO BE AN AMERICAN THIS WEEK! Finally, a President who is not apologetic nor afraid to use our well-earned power to protect us and the world. Finally we have the UN at heel. I am so happy and will love GWB for the rest of my days. After the last 10 years, I feel like singing Free at last, Free at last, Thank God Almighty we are Free AT Last!!!

[Dubya]

Guess they were watching the votes.

[Constitution Day]

This was really a "SAVE THE UN" resolution.

Exactly!!
They approved it, but I bet they felt like they were forced to eat their spinach.

Without question.

[cajungirl]

Well,,er,,I did get carried away there,,ummm

Hopefully not until he wins in 2004

Based on how he keeps outflanking his critics and opponents with clever misdirection and a stunningly non-Clintonian lack of egotism, I believe President Bush is a big fan of Sun Tzu.

There is a large Sun Tzu translation of The Art of War on Karl Rove's desk in the White House. He is a student of the philosophy and tactics described in the book.

You are correct, "Strategery" is about to join the English language as a real word.

[cajungirl]

Rob, those are suitable for framing,,you have a winner and very funny!!

[Grampa Dave]

Gee whiz that stupid shrub, Bush, won again. How can the UN Security council approve this terrible plan 15 to 0!

This is the death warrant for Saddam. Now every Iraqi with a gun or a hand grenade has a good reason to kill Saddam before they, their families and country look like those al Qaeda goat humping thugs looked like in Yemen after they were removed.

Next, will be Iraq and Syria as part of the Axis of Evil to be purged and flushed down the toilet. The murdering Mullahs of Irag and Islamofascist thugs in control of Syria in these two countries are living on borrowed time. Either we will kill them or their countrymen will kill them.

That liquid squish you just heard was Saddam filling his diaper.

Additional points added:

Point 12 (by mhking):
"If you piss us off any more than we are already pissed off, WE ATTACK."

Point 13 (by me):
"The U.S. reserves the right to attack to settle old scores."

Point 14 (by me):
"If Bush wakes up on the wrong side of the bed and decides to whack Saddam, WE APPROVE."

Weapons inspectors to be there in about 45 days. Hmmm, Merry Christmas.
