CFR -- Eight of ten international lawyers would say a U.S. invasion of Iraq without a specific Security Council resolution would violate international law

That view would also be supported by the legal advisers of most other countries in the United Nations.

I have been listening to many high officials today speak in favor of this war. Within a minute each will say something which is not true or is misleading.

Iraq has complied with UN weapons inspections and no evidence has ever been presented that Iraq has produced any weapon's of mass destruction since the Gulf War. I can point to three major UN weapon's inspectors and three high ranking Iraqi defectors that back that up - there are no known WMD's, there is no support for terrorists aimed at the United States, Iraq poses no threat to the region, let alone the United States.

There is no common agreement on the basic facts of this case.
