"Iraq had repeatedly targeted and fired on our aircraft, also which were violations of UN resolutions giving the US the right to continue the Gulf War to its logical conclusion, including the removal of Saddam."

You should try to remember the context of what was happening then.......Bush clearly spoiling for a fight and sending our planes into the no fly zone to provokedand get fired upon .....sure they were fired on, what would you expect? Remember the Gulf of Tonkin???

" but to claim the invasion was not justified and that they had done nothing is simply bullshit."

Exactly what did they do to justify an invasion????? They were certainly no threat to us. BTW, I'm sure we're going to hear a lot from your side about the threat NK is to us.....what a joke!

" Saddam should have understood he was dealing with a real president, not the spineless worm that had been elected in '92."

Saddam was dealing with a cowboy with a cowboy mentality....
