Speech is there, Robert. Take it or leave it.
The idea that there was nothing official prior to the war about democracy is a lie. And that was far from the only reference in Bush's speeches.
Powell approached the U.N. from a WMD angle because, if you actually LOOK at the U.N.--and I'm not holding my breath on that one--the idea of installing a democracy means absolutely nothing to many of the members. Democracy means shit at the U.N.
At the time Powell made his speech, the Security Council included Pakistan, communist China, Angola, Cameroon, Guinea, and Baathist Syria. I'm cutting Russia some slack on this list.
