Unless someone can come up with a credible reason that SH was a threat to the US, then this will continue to be viewed as an illegal act of aggression by most of the world.

well sometimes it is rather a a vague, indefinite and difficult area one gets into , when one uses the expression

most of the :

"Civilized World "

sometimes that is a very hard place to locate...

Lizzi, actually most of the world is not as simple minded as yourself. The key will be a happy liberated Iraq. If that fails then we will have failed. If not and the Iraqis rejoice, then I think the world will not press that argument. They would be fools to. Anyway, they should be able to find enough evidence anyway.

I suspect that the WMDs will be delivered when they are found. Hell, if I had 8 months to hide something, let alone 12 years, I am pretty sure that I could find a pretty good hiding place. If I was SH, I would hide them in residential areas...homes. How many homes do you think that the UN inspectors checked?

I also suspect that finding the WMDs is of secondary importance when you still have people shooting at you.

<<Deliver the WMDs, and all is forgiven. So where are they?>>

This seems pretty clear-cut. Since US troops actually got sick, it would probably rule out planted evidence.

"...Soldiers who were guarding the military compound reportedly began vomiting, and experienced dizziness and skin blotches – all symptoms of exposure to small amounts of nerve agent.

Knight Ridder says chemical tests in the warehouse "came back positive for so-called G-Series nerve agents, which include sarin and tabun, both of which Iraq has been known to possess..."

Here we go again. "Illegal". Why "illegal"?

Can you cite a me a section of US Code
www4.law.cornell.edu
or a treaty the United States is party to
www2.lib.udel.edu
that this war violates?

Frankly, I think you made a false charge.
