Mario, I have posted reason after reason after reason why I think this war happened in past threads. I'm not going to go re-research what you should have looked up yourself a long time ago before forming your simplistic theories, but I'll name a few off the top of my head:
1) 1.5 million Iraqi's dead by Saddam's hand.
2) 17 UN resolutions over 12 years condemning Iraq, while they did nothing to comply and the UN waffled as members of the Security Commission standed against conflict because they were owed BILLIONS by Saddam's regime.
3) 1,000 tons of chemical and biological weapons found in 1998 that are not accounted for.
4) Newly found proof that Saddam was tied to terrorism and trained those that were involved in 9/11 attack and made plans to ship weapons to Syria (see Daily Telegraph article that *shock* recieved little to no press from the US media)
But those are just my theories on why the war started and have nothing to do with intrenational law or God forbid, the FACTS.
Dyflon, I'm sorry if I come off rude, but I am sick and tired of people spouting off about things they know nothing about when the result of those opinions could cost thousands or even millions of lives if terrorists and despots like Saddam are allowed to do whatever they please. Ignorance is just annoying by itself, but when that ignorance can do so much damage it becomes sinful and abhorrent.
But thats just my opinion. I could be wrong.
