I understood what you said quite clearly hence why I posted the link that I did. I suppose I should have written that out explicitly so that you could understand it.

Oh and I noticed you skipped over my earlier comment. So really, you fail sir.

I didn't realize I had to also include every single other comment you make in quotations so that whoever is reading the current post can also get it's bibliography. So professor
Red would you also like me to annotate within the text?

So since we created it, we get to defy it

No, but last time I checked we still don't need approval from UN for any action anywhere, we are a free and sovereign nation free to take action against targets we feel are a threat to national security. Just because we bring an issue before the UN does not mean that we hang our decisions based on their guidence. The reasons for not trusting this organization should be made quit clear by the
Oil for food scandal. We not only created the UN but we pay about
$5 Billion of our tax payer dollars just to keep it afloat, add that to the fact it's on our soil... pssh. Tell me why we shouldn't just absolve the soap box for international rapscallions.

Much like, we created the Constitution, thus we get to defy it. Or at least, politicians think so with regards to laws they make.

So you accused us of violating the constitution because Congress didn't vote for the use of force, and I post a link of the vote where congress passed the vote to use force. So either your trying to talk me in circles or your not connecting the dots. In either case I don't think I have the gumption to make the case any simpler for you.
