'WAR ON IRAQ ILLEGAL'

UN Secretary General Kofi Annan has said the war on Iraq was "illegal".

Mr Annan said the war was "not in conformity" with the UN Security Council or with the UN Charter.


He also said there could not be credible elections in Iraq next January if the current unrest continued.

Asked if there was legal authority for the war on Iraq, Mr Annan told the BBC World Service: "I have stated clearly that it was not in conformity with the security council, with the UN charter."

From here: http://www.hrw.org/reports/2003/sierraleone/sierleon0103-02.htm#P184_9187

Human Rights Watch has documented several cases of ****** violence by peacekeepers with the United Nations Mission in Sierra Leone (UNAMSIL), including the rape of a twelve-year-old girl in Bo by a soldier of the Guinean contingent and the gang rape of a woman by two Ukrainian soldiers near Kenema. There appears to be reluctance on the part of UNAMSIL to investigate and take disciplinary measures against the perpetrators. Reports of rape by peacekeepers with the Economic Community of West African States Monitoring Group (ECOMOG), the majority of whom were Nigerian, deployed at an earlier stage in the war, were rare. Both ECOMOG and UNAMSIL peacekeepers have ******ly exploited women, including the solicitation of child prostitutes, whilst deployed in Sierra Leone.
So, who here really gives a F*ck what the UN thinks?

And what's the UN going to do? ;) Write a report, take 3 years to do it, condemn the US and in the end use only words to do something about it?

Also a gang rape is not three people. A gang is usually a dozen or more, and in the **** industry, it's called double pene... haha you get the idea :cantbeli:

The only thing that gives the UN power is when states comply with it.

But they really can't do **** to stop us.

That's why I love America. And Israel. They just don't give a ****.

If the UN said Canada did something illegal it would be a national catastrophe.

UN says that the US or Israel did something illegal hmmm...**** OFF! :lol:

Of course the Iraq War was 'illegal' according to Kofi, his son's gravy train was put to a halt.

Oh yeah, and there was that res. 1441. No biggie, its not like anyone was enforcing the other 17 resolutions already layered on the '91 ceasefire agreement. Imagine that, Saddam didnt keep to his part of the deal.

Kofi Annan "Iraq war illegal"

Mr. Annan just gave the terrorists, kidnappers, rapists, theives, and other social malcontents in Iraq a great excuse for their behaviour.

The war is "illegal" therefore anything you chose to do to the provisional government or the coalition is fair game.

Now you wonder why American's don't trust the United Nations or respect it.

Hey Kofi, how about doing something about the genocide in Sudan.

Maybe it's just me, but I find the concept of a "legal" war to be laughable. What, do we have to file for a permit first, or take a driving test?

Future wars will be fought with generals accompanied by their lawyers.
