Well, it wasn't unilateral JP, but it was near as dammit. Only US, UK and Australia committed troops, and - if the decision to invade was made on a democratic basis, it wouldn't have happened. Remember barely half the people in the US thought it was a good idea, let alone half the countries in the world (or even more impossible, half the people in the world).
I'll put it another way - if a collection of other countries, not including the US, had initiated an invasion that the US didn't approve of, you'd be screaming blue murder. You shouldn't be so surprised that the war makes people angry.
Finally, I probably should have said "pre-emptive" rather than "unilateral". But never mind.
