Even if we needed UN approval (which we do not)...Not only did Saddam violate the terms of the ceasefire in the first Gulf War, but the United Nations Security Council Resolution 1483 essentially determined the Iraq War as a legal/legitimate war. If you are looking for a truly “illegal war” by the definition of the UN…look no farther than our (Clinton’s) war against Yugoslavia.
