You say this:

I don't care whether it was Article 4 or Article 5; the issue is the similarities or dissimilarities between that attack on Serbia and the attack on Iraq.

Then you say this in the same post:

We did it as a part of our committment to NATO.

So you don't care if it was article 4 or article 5, yet you contend we had to fight due to a commitment to NATO. How the hell can you figure that out if you don't care where that "commitment" came from? Article 5 is the only one that REQUIRES military action. We had no committment to fight. Period. It was an elective operation.

You may be able to say "we attacked Serbia along with our friends in NATO", but you certainly can't say "we attacked Serbia to fulfill an obligation to NATO".
