[edit] Difference between "mandate to enforce by arms" being "not binding under international law"

Your notes very accurately show how chapter VII needs to be invoked in order to issue a mandate to enforce SC decisions. It is very far removed from claiming that without chapter VII, they are considered "non binding under international law". They most certainly are. There is an editor who routinely expounds on these issues, I will try to track him/her down for additional comment.--AladdinSE 22:29, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

the sources repeats the word "binding" 10 times. If this accurately shows something completely different, then it's speaking in code. Amoruso 22:34, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Far too many references!

This article has 11 references to back up a single (fairly non-controversial) claim: that decisions taken by the United Nations not under Chapter VII are non-binding. I'm sure this much is unnecessary, and just two or three references would be sufficient. There may be some dispute over the issue, but that's better covered at the UN resolution article than this one. Terraxos 23:50, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
