A touch hypocritcal, don't you think? For every Guardian reader who sends a letter, there will be an American who believes that his country is 100% correct to go into other country and change their governments because they aren't how they believe the other country should be.

No it doesn't. It shows that America can't throw it's weight around at the UN. If it came to a solution that all the countries agreed on, there wouldn't have been a problem, and an illegal war wouldn't have been started. Just because another country doesn't want you going to war doesn't mean that their opinion is a waste of time. What makes America's opinion any more valid than another country's?
