The White House now says it can build a coalition against Iraq without the help of the U.N. As Ari Fleishcer recently said at a press conference:

“F–k them. F–k them all. Why the hell do we need the U.N.’s help? Give me a .22 target pistol and I could invade France, so why do we need those goddamn c–ksuckers’ backing of our military? We’re America! We’re one bad motherf–ker! If we need other countries to back us, we’ll just conquer some areas and set up our own friendly countries. We can do that. We can do whatever the f–k we want. Just to make things clear and make sure that I’m not misquoted, we have complete contempt for other countries and their opinions. Come to think of it, why I am explaining myself to the press? I hate you f–kers! I’m outta here.”

France and Russia stated they were unhappy with the U.S. position. France has been especially uneasy with America since Donald Rumsfeld tried to strangle their ambassador for “looking at him funny.” They want war with Iraq to be the last option, while America wants it as the first option and diplomacy only as a final option. In the U.S. resolution, the ordering of steps taken against Iraq will be war, then a nuclear strike, then biological warfare, then childish name calling, then an embargo, and, finally, diplomacy if none of the previous efforts worked. France’s resolution was diplomacy followed by surrender to Iraq. War would only be allowed if unconditional surrender was not accepted. “France will attack anyone with unholy vengeance who prevents them from surrendering,” said a French diplomat, probably named Pierre, before being strangled by Donald Rumsfeld.
Okay, once again I didn’t really read the article I linked to. Reading is for losers.
