Its been stated numerous times that we didnt have UN approval..so therefore it would be illegal.

Not like they would have given the go ahead..but thats another story.

I think the US went without UN approval because we\'ve been waiting for Iraq to disarm for over 12 years now. Frankly, after that long, the US government is growing a bit impatient. Theres only so far you could push a government before they react. We\'ve had our embasys bombed, buildings attacked, troops attacked, bases bombed, the Cole, killing innocent civilians as in 9/11, kidnappings like the US embassy in Iran and Daniel Pearl and theres only so much the US government bent over backwards and ignored this. Now the government has had enough and is taking action for all these attacks and kidnappings against America.

I think Luckee\'s point is, the rules only apply for when it works for us.

We descredited the UN and ignored the UN - but now that something is happening, we fall back and want international laws to apply. We want our cake and eat to. Typical, really.

We want our soldiers to be treated like human beings. Not gonna happen as George Sr. might say. It is Iraq after-all.

Since when is the UN the authority on whether a war is legal or not?  Please... this whole question is pointless.  The war is not illegal and the treatment of POW\'s is not tied to the legality of this war - its totally separate.

They got two more POWs from a shot down Apache. Supposedly, these two pilots are being treated better than the others.
