I would have to agree with this post. The Saddam Hussein was, indeed, in violation of the cease fire agreement and treaties signed at the end of the first Gulf War. US and GB were well within their rights to finish the job that they started. And a world without Saddam is a better place. And if a little democracy were injected into the Arab world -- a world of despotic leaders, absolute tyrants, and of religious leaders who don't care a whit for their own people, so much the better. This war isn't against Islam, it's a war to attempt to restore basic order, civic as well human rights and dignity to the Arab people.

I have always supported and still support the War in Iraq.
I supported the war because Saddam was in violation of the cease fire agreement with the U.S. and allies from the original Gulf war as well as all later UN Security Council resolutions. I also supported it because I thought it would be good long-term for the Iraqi people and the region in general.[edit on 5/17/2005 by djohnsto77]

I don't see how any war approved by Congress and executed by the President could possibly be illegal
