Should we, the US, unilaterally enforce UN resolutions? Should military strategy be based on CIA intel (now known to be flawed)? Should we only go to war when attacked?
Again, just asking.

No, I don't think we should act unilatterally to enforce UN resolutions; we should do what's best for our national defense, we can do that unilaterally. And we can help our allies, not fight their wars for them; especially when they didn't ask. Israel would have handled the Iraq situation with much more efficacy.
If you decide that there is a need to put boots on the ground, based on any intelligence, put those troops on the ground with the directive and ablility to totally obliterate our enemy; not fight for their democracy and built their infastructure.
We need to get back into the intelligence business, so that we don't make these mistakes in the future. This is only my opinion, thanx for not flae-baiting
