What does this have to do with Iraq? (I knew you were asking yourself.)
This: we don't have the moral authority to begin blowing away vigilante-style without obvious and public provocation.


I think that Iraq has provided provocation but leaving that aside for the moment, and addressing your comparison to vigilantism. Its illegal for individuals to take care of things vigilante style because there is a government that can take care of it. There is no world government. Countries have to take care of their own problems. They might do so in concert with other nations or not but its not like the US can call the cops on Saddam.
