That is the most important variable, just what will populations support.

Which population are talking about, John? The General Assembly of the UN? The majority of Americans support invading Iraq.

You have on numerous occassions poo pooed the threat posed by Iraq because you claim he can't and seemingly has no intention of attacking the continental United States. That is not, has never been, a condition for an Act of War. And if that WAS the sole condition, history shows there has only been two wars, the Mexican War, and the Civil War, which threatened the territory of the CONTUS. So precedent is against you there on defining "threat."
