Ten,

re: No, it wasn't. Saddam wasn't being compliant, the inspections couldn't be conclusive one way or another, and the "oil-for-palaces" program was a smack in the face of U.N. humanitarianism.

Being "comliant", "coundn't be conclusive", and "oil-for-palaces" are not legitimate reasons to overthrow and occupy, with US troops. Bush knew that, that's why he framed the argument as a threat to US soil.

If we accept that with the new Bush doctrine, those three things are legitimate justifications to impose our political will through our military, then we will be very busy.
