Iraqi war illegal

So Kofi Annan, the United Nations secretary general, has finally said that the Iraqi war was illegal. What we’ve all known for who knows how long ends up being truth. America’s argument that they fought a war off self defense never held any water after no WMD were found, so the Americans have launched an illegal war on another sovereign state.

Not that that will make any difference, of course, apparently the Americans are a superior species to the rest of humanity and get to break rules that they would punish others for neglecting.

Very similar to the fact that they get to have nuclear weapons, but everybody else doesn’t and gets sanctioned fort trying to acquire them. After all, the Americans are much safer with their red buttons then any other country. Now I’m not for nuclear spread, but does anybody else’s mouth have the tangy taste of hypocrisy when they think about these things?
