Unnnggghhh... This again. We were letting the UN handle it as a matter of policy after the first golf war. The pres tried to let the post war policy of the previous administrations work, but we now know that the UN had been corrupted - which the administration had discovered prior to our current action without the UN. The pres allowed them the opportunity to come clean before invading.

The UN was the delay, the Russians were the delay, the French were the delay. 12 freakin' years of hollow threats & nearly fruitless inspection efforts. The longer it went on, the more money to line the pockets of the above parties. That's why it was delayed, that's why we didn't go in earlier.

Seriously, save your money then buy a clue.

Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.
