UN Security Council Resolutions Currently Being Violated (other than Iraq)
The blizzard of reichwing lies included the specious notion that the US is acting to enforce UN resolutions. The blatant hypocrisy of this pretense is almost beyond imagining that it could be propounded by any rational person. In a Security Council where the US has absolute veto power, it's remarkable how many resolutions have been violated by allies of the US -- and the US has not seen fit to "enforce" compliance to such resolutions, resolutions with which it (purportedly) agrees.

This article offers a partial list of UN resolutions that are currently being violated by countries other than Iraq. The US has not seen fit to "enforce" them, let alone invade the countries violating them. Israel is in violation of over 30 such resolutions. Twenty-five violations are listed for Turkey.

(Foreign Policy In Focus (FPIF) seems to be a very useful resource.)
