Damn good question. I think the fact that there has been no attempt made to punish the US administration (and the UK I guess, although we were 'just following orders' (as poor an excuse as it ever has been)) is one of the things that the rest of the world finds so infuriating. One of the main reasons the UN was established was so that one country couldn't just invade another one without an agreement that it would be in the best interest of the citizens of that country and global security. Going against a UN resolution and invading a Sovereign country to secure their natural resources is to say the least, out of order.
As public opinion in the US is becoming ever more polarised and the "2-week" war is turning into another vietnam maybe we'll see a revolution. Doesn't the US constitution give its citizens the right to bear arms against an oppressive government?
