Alex,
Sometimes you baffle me.
Why is this any different than any of the other dozen or so times when one of the five permanent members did what they needed to do without the UN? In the past, measures were introduced against one of the security members to withdraw from a foreign country and the member just vetoed it. In this case, no one has introduced a resolution against the US. In that respect, this is by far not the most serious test the UN has faced. Not even close.
