Okay Stoneage...what in the world makes a war "legal", that is ridiculous, a war is a war, and if Saddam wanted us to know he had no WMD, he should have allowed inspections, instead of playing "chicken" with the U.S., and contrary to your beliefs, Saddam was a supporter of several extremist terrorists groups granting money to families of suicide bombers, and providing safe-haven; including to master-mind Masab al Zarqawi, who was treated in a Baghdad hospital before 2003. Zarqawi became the leader of Al Qaeda in Iraq up north near Mosul, he was responsible for chlorine gas attacks(a type of chemical warfare, by the way, its "illegal" in 2006 on hundreds of Iraqi civilians, I saw this firsthand in our hospital and treated several of these civilians, he was responsible for several beheadings of civilians, and the attacks in Jordan that killed our ambassador Foley. We have not received a drop of oil, or a penny of profit from Iraqi oil, (which would actually come in handy). In fact, our presence in Iraq did allow the Iraqi people to elect their own government, and is certainly more free than it was before. Remember, Saddam, along with his sons, was known as "The Butcher of Baghdad".
