Al,

re:The time to have justified forceful intervention in Iraq on humanitarian grounds was indeed during the Iran war and directly after the 1991 gulf war, when saddam was busy slaughtering revolting kurds and shia. Why don't you tell the thread what the US was busy doing during these two time periods and who was in charge at the time.

We were busy acquiescing to the will of the UN and withdrew to Kuwait. Everyone in the USA complained Bush Sr. should have ignored the UN and continued on to Baghdad.
