ah, i see the distinction between society and hemisphere sorry.
the US is an empire, and the UN is precisely the mechanism we need to keep it from abusing it's power.
saddamns destruction of his al-samoud2 missiles IS substantial. When you consider that all that has been found in the way of evidence of iraqs WMD is 16 empty warheads, and these hundred or so conventional missiles, this is definitely significant. I would not be surprised if they have more than they lead on to, but, the missiles don't even fly 100 miles and are certainly not accurate.
the rest of the "evidence" is hearsay, missing documents, accusations etc. it would never hold up in a court of law, but it seems to trick some people like yourself into beliveing it's justifiable grounds for invading a country and bombing civillians from the air who have done nothing wrong.
and yes there are other ways of delivering chemicals. I could hop in my car right now and drive over to the states with a hidden supply of anthrax inside my gas tank. Does this mean i am a threat? only if it's likely that i would do such a thing and get away with it. which neither is true, in my case, or in saddamns.
I ask you, what does he have to gain, by attacking the US? And, what has changed since 1992? the answer is nothing.
