What I find interesting is many people and nations across the globe feel Saddam is a threat and needs to be taken out, yet they refuse to back an invasion simply because some glorified body didn't name the invasion "ok".

Does anyone else find this funny? Someone needs to make your opinion "ok" in order for you to defend it?

The resolution didn't pass simply because of a few countries with veto power, as I understand it, please correct me if I'm wrong. So because of these few countries, who coincidentally have large business dealings with Iraq, the world decides not to support an invasion even though they think Saddam needs to go.

Doesn't this jump out at anyone else? If Canada is worried about the legitimacy of the UN, as the latest article states, then they should definitely be concerned about the veto powers of "interested" nations.
