"Tony Blair has privately reassured his Labour Party critics that Britain will not back US military action against Iraq unless it wins the backing of the United Nations Security Council"

Oh well, that's all right then. Phew, what a relief! And there was me thinking that Blair will do exactly what the US tells him to do, and that the US will do whatever it takes to get control of Iraqi oil, and no UN Security Council resolution is going to stop them. Silly me.
