Evidently you're too lazy to read the entire report.

Which would sanction an act of war, fatboy? I'm sure you know that unless Iraq was an imminent threat, an action of war must be sanctioned by the security council to be legitimate.

Force was authorized by UNSCR 678; UNSCR 687 suspended, but did not terminate the authority to use force; in UNSCR 1441, it was unanimously agreed that Iraq was in material breach of 687. The UN had the authority, and responsibility to hold Iraq accountable - it just lacked the desire.
No matter how many times you say this was an illegal war, it won't make it an illegal war. If you're so sure of your case, take the US to court.
