33. Saddam was in compliance with the UN resolution
Is that the "contract" you were talking about. On the other hand Israel, for example has been non-compliant with many, many UN resolutions and we have yet to invade them.

Diplomacy was highly successful under Clinton. Saddam would have probably been ousted long ago if the US had not kept stubbornly insisting on sanctions against the belief of the rest of the world (except Israel, I believe). His opposition was kept impotent because of these sanctions.

What the hell gives us the right to invade and then USE countries for our strategic benefit??? Do you see any foreign bases in our country?? The US is the biggest misbehaving country in the world right now. Does he think we should be struck?

At least this fellow has some remnant of morality in that he thinks Bush's idea to lie his way into a war was disagreeable.

Does he know that he swore to uphold the constitution and that this invasion is violates the constitution and both national and international law??
