Perhaps you can explain to me how you & the rest of the
liberal world got from the terms of the Gulf War Cease Fire
Agreement to falsely claiming that the "only" legitimate
reason to remove saddam is evidence of "stockpiles" of WMD's.
Here is UN Resolution 687. Can you link me to any UN
Resolution or any law that supercedes the absolute demands of
the Cease Fire Agreement - AKA Resolution 687?

And don't forget UN Resolution 688......
688 (April 5, 1991) "condemns" Saddam Hussein's repression of the Iraqi civilian population -- "the consequences of which threaten international peace and security." UNSCR 688 also requires Saddam Hussein to end his repression of the Iraqi people and to allow immediate access to international humanitarian organizations to help those in need of assistance. Saddam Hussein has repeatedly violated these provisions and has: expanded his violence against women and children; continued his horrific torture and execution of innocent Iraqis; continued to violate the basic human rights of the Iraqi people and has continued to control all sources of information (including killing more than 500 journalists and other opinion leaders in the past decade). Saddam Hussein has also harassed humanitarian aid workers; expanded his crimes against Muslims; he has withheld food from families that fail to offer their children to his regime; and he has continued to subject Iraqis to unfair imprisonment.
