Feargal Quinn (Independent)

They feel that as they are able to do this, there is no reason they should not do it. This frightened me. I am a great believer in the rule of law and see the United Nations as fulfilling this role. I argued strongly that we should find another way to get around this problem. On radio today I heard it said no two countries with McDonalds restruants had ever gone to war with one another. I do not think that is true as I think it happened in the case of Yugoslavia. I am not sure if the use of sanctions was the right way to approach Iraq after the first Gulf War. I argued strongly with the Americans I met that great damage would be done to the rule of law if Resolution 1441 was not adhered to. That is now behind us.
