There were UN approved sanctions and a no-fly zone, that where based upon ACTUAL verifiable actions. How many decades were those to have supposed to have gone on for?
Sadaam DID develop WMDs, he DID launch Scud missiles at Israel, he DID attack the Marsh Arabs with WMDs. He DID have form for what was alleged. Even if he wasn't at the time, he would've in the future. IIRC there were claims of a million children starving because of sanctions, even though the "food for oil" was meant to deal with that. Where they found? Either that was a fake story or they needed rescuing. The intent was for the Iraqis to live freely, and without fear. What was wrong with that?
