President Bush repeatedly stated that he would go to war, if necessary, to enforce United Nations resolutions to disarm Iraq. But those resolutions have nothing to do with September 11th or defending the American homeland. When America goes to war, it should be based on protecting America, not enforcing the dictates of the UN or any other international grouping. -- Editor

"America will be making only one determination: Is Iraq meeting the terms of the [United Nations] Security Council resolution or not?... If Iraq fails to fully comply, the United States and other nations will disarm Saddam Hussein."

President George W. Bush

November 8, 2002, the day UN Security Council Resolution 1441 was passed

"In confronting Iraq, the United States is also showing our commitment to effective international institutions. We are a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council. We helped to create the Security Council. We believe in the Security Council -- so much that we want its words to have meaning."

President George W. Bush
