Really? Care to nave some of these *many* reasons? And care to provide ANY
supporting evidence and show how these reasons supplied justification for
invasion? We all await the support for your sweeping statements and bald
assertions with baited breath.

I would suggest that it was the rationalle they hyped because given a French
veto of a UN security council resolution propesed by the US, advocating
invasion, it was to only possible reason related to Resolution 1441.

Not at all! Fully ninety eight and a half percent of the original force was
US! Nowadays it is laeger than per cent US! Hardly a coalition compared
to the Kewait invasion?
