You can't be serious here - the "faulty intelligence" is literally the only thing I agree with, or did you forget the 100% corruption involved in the Oil-for-Food shitshow, the lack of backbone for weapons inspectors over the course of a decade, etc etc etc?
Let's not pretend like the UN had any sort of efficacy, control or even a viable plan with Iraq prior to the war - and I'm not arguing 'better off' vs. 'worse off' or anything, but you're being intentionally reductive here because it suits your point.
This is, ironically, similar to how shiner claims member nations take advantage of the US position in the UN, no?
