I'm going to give all you kerry supporters a free history lesson...

One that you need because you are too lazy to do it on your own....

"It should be the policy of the United States to support efforts to remove the regime headed by Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq and to promote the emergence of a democratic government to replace that regime," according to the Iraq Liberation Act (Public Law 105-338).

Representative Benjamin Gilman (Republican of New York) introduced H.R. 4655 September 29, 1998. President Bill Clinton signed the bill into law October 31, 1998.

Gilman's bill passed in the House of Representatives on a 360-38 vote October 5, and the Senate approved H.R. 4655 by unanimous consent on October 7.

Clinton signed the bill into law October 31.

If the 2nd Iraq war was a result of a change in paradigm caused by 9/11, why did it make more sense to invade Iraq, change the regime, and install a democratic society there than in Saudi Arabia? Answer that one please.

About 16-18 (how many?) UN resolutions. That, and Saudi Arabia wasn't persuing any WMD programs.
