The US didn't bring an amendment or new resolution calling for the use of armed force against Iraq, therefore the action was not legally sanctioned by the UN.

Exactly what do you think "Serious Consequences" meant? I don't think anyone was surprised that the interpretation of the US was that it meant military action.
