I don't mean this post to be pro/anti Bush.
What are the reasons for the invasion of the Iraq?

1. WMD
2. Saddam
3. Terrorists
4. Stability in the Middle East
5. Oil

I believe that if any 3 of these reasons are legit the invasion was justified.
I don't want our troops to die without reason, but in great interest to the country and the world, the US most step in and take charge.

Are these reason's enough to go to war? To over throw Saddam?

Paul Ruh gives a very good reason for taking Saddam out of power. One that
we seem to have forgotten about. For that reason alone, Saddam WAS a weapon
of mass destruction....

What everyone has forgot to mention, and I don't understand why, Saddam's
military fired on our aircraft in the no fly zones a total of 1200 ( TWELVE
HUNDRED) times. That was reason enough to take him out... WHY IS THIS
FORGOTTEN ???

Luckily, we had good detection and evasion equipment and techniques, or we
would have lost a lot of good people and aircraft.
