The Constitution of the United States defines the internal decision-making process of the United States. Following the provisions of the Constitution of the United States satisfies American law, but has no legal standing beyond our borders. Iraq is not part of the United States. The US Constitution has no legal standing in Iraq.

The 1949 Geneva Conventions and the 1907 Hague Convention, which are important elements of international law, do not give the US authority to invade a sovereign nation posing no threat to the United States. Neither one provides authority to invade a sovereign nation posing no threat to the invader.

You did not answer the question at all. By what authority did we invade Iraq?
