So have I -

What reasons did you get out of it? Other than weapons inspectors being obstructed?

You should improve your reading skills

and stop getting your "news" from useless sources like the ABC.

What's wrong with weapons inspectors being obstructed as a reason?

I believe that you were arguing that there were more reasons than

just WMDs. The obstruction of weapons inspectors is just another facet of the WMD issue, not a whole new reason for invasion.

But the point of this

- I'm guessing - is to say "the war was a mistake". Which only works for the specific reason of WMDs existing in Iraq, since there apparently weren't any. But reasons like thwarting inspections remain valid. Iraq was being aggressive and totalitarian.

I have mentioned above that I do not deny Saddam's pre-war behaviour,

But this does not give America the right to step in.

Similarly, If I see someone in the pub that looks like they might be able to beat me up, I am not allowed to make a pre-emptive strike.

This post is very hard to read

lots of vertical single word lines of text :)
