This is simply not true of the inspections just before the war.

We also know that SH was bribing many of the UN diplomats with money he received from the oil for food program.
Whoop de doo.

We also know that many countries that were voting on the war did not have purely the world's interests in mind; rather, they were voting to protect their debt and business contracts.
I'm filing this one in my circular Halliburton file.

I'm not saying that there weren't legitimate arguments to be against the war, but to say that the vote, or the UN itself, is anything other than a complete fucking farce is just wrong and naieve.
You don't seem to be paying attention to what we're saying, which has to do with our knowledge about WMD when we invaded.
