When did the "UN Charter" authorize US military action against Iraq ? The last time it was in 1991...
On the other hand did you know that Uncle Sam owes a few billions to UN by simply not paying his dues ? I hope we're not going to face the REAL penalties you're talking about... j/k

That's fine as it is, the only problem is that now - thanks to the wise leadership of Mr. GWB - there are much more "terrorist orgranizations & extremists" than before...

Seriously, you gave your points, I give mines:

GWB has united and magnetized the extremists by giving them clear objectives and an enemy to hate even more ("get the agressors out from the holy land blablabla.."), while he divided and polarized the US and the western world ("do we really need this Iraq war and why this way blablabla..?").
Do you really think he can win a global war by means almost half of Americans and most of developed countries oppose ?
This is hardly the way to win the war on terror. If he fails to understand this, he needs to go.
