i think it IS that simple, just because they cant pull their thumbs out NOW, doesnt change the fact that we had the authority to do it based on the documents from 1992
What you're missing is that is clearly not a fact that we had that authority-it's ambiguous at best. Resolution 1441 says something to the effect of "serious consequences" for violations of the other resolutions, but nothing specific about the use of force-as other resolutions, such as those for Kuwait, Haiti and Bosnia specified.
