"what 9/11 terrorist was Saddam sheltering?" per your own wiki article- NONE And I fail to see how any of what you said about the Kurds or Bin Laden relates to Saddam. That's what we were talking about. And no- a bombing campaign is not an invasion: en.wikipedia.org For composition of the NATO troops that went in after the bombing: en.wikipedia.org Looks like it was mainly UK, French and US. Hardly what I would call "US". Take a look at the percentages aboove, and then look at the percentages of troops in Iraq. Oddly enough I've been told Iraq is a "coalition", but, imo, the troop numbers above are what a real coalition looks like- though the UK is certainly over-represented. You still want to say the US was the major player in Kosovo? I think the UK and France dominated in UNPROFOR too- but I don't have time to look those numbers up.
