First, every country, including ours, has used diplomatic cover for spies for many years. So, it 's not a surprize that the UN is full of them. "Diplomatic Immunity" covers a lot of sins.
Chirac not withstanding, huge numbers of people in countries all over the world apparantely were against this particular military action.
Despite the outstanding job our military did in the actual fighting itself, I still believe that the timing and alleged reasoning for this one was ill advised.
We now need to commit to the long term in rebuilding Iraq, and as has become obvious, it will be painful.

Yes except perhaps you have forgotten how much of a media mess they made when they found out that the US and Britain were listening in on UN officials talk about the Iraq war. Why haven't they made the same mess here?
And while people may be against the war, they simply are against the US. They let the UN off the hook and countries like Russia and France are angels evidently. What jokes...what crocks.
