None of which was listed as the reason for the pre-emptive war. But I guess
Hussein’s actions (and the actions of his sons) are as good a reason as any
to kill 3,000+ innocent Iraqi civilians, not to mention the dead or wounded
US citizens...

IMO, the only justification needed was this: Hussein was in continuing violation
of the cease-fire that ended the first Gulf War, both through continuing
activities in no-fly zones and hampering efforts of enforcement of the UN
resolutions governing Iraq. I wish W had just said that, because I don’t like
the idea of US troops liberating every population of the world that’s oppressed
and making the US beholden to their well-being. Sometimes people need to change
on their own, not through US military might. I guess that makes me isolationist,
eh?
