Al, You are revising history.

Not really. We got the support from the world, but we sure didn't wait to go through the formalities. And even if we didn't get the support, we would have gone in because most Americans supported it.

That would have been self defense. What's your point here?

Probably not much of a point, but consider the example of the police officer who opened fire on an armed suspect he hated in the first place. Self-defense, or a perfect excuse to get in a "clean shoot"?

No need to answer; I've made my point. The whole world was pretty sure Saddam had the WMD in the first place. Saddam was no different than the crook wielding a fake weapon. Of course, only after we know do we get the second-guessers coming in and crying about "police brutality."
