Who has Iraq just invaded?

No one. They invaded Kuwait in the early 90s thus bringing the ceasefire on themselves. They have violated the ceasefire terms for 12 years thus bringing enforcement of those terms on themselves.

What's the violation?

12 years of a WMD program. Or even just not fully complying with the inspections.

We're not doing this to enforce the UN resolution and it's fatuous to pretend we are.

The fact that France won't agree to a new resolution doesn't mean we won't be enforcing the existing ones.

and don't try to pretend to us that you're doing it for any moral and respectable ground...

No pretending involved.
