Although Oeconomicus more than adequately refuted your reality defying POV, I thought it would also help you to learn that UN Resolution 687 was the Gulf War Cease Fire Agreement.

The Cease Fire Agreement demanded Saddam's compliance to be unconditional. Saddam signed it. It clearly spelled out everything Iraq was required to do to comply with the Cease Fire Agreement.

Saddam was egregiously in violation of the Cease Fire Agreement. There is absolutely no disagreement about that fact. That meant a resumption of hostilities was a completely legitimate option to force Saddam back into compliance.

Every UN Resolution passed after the Gulf War incorporated #687 into it.

And when the US went back to the UN to force compliance & got unanimous approval of UN Resolution 1441, the Cease fire Agreement (#687) was incorporated into that resolution as well.
