As for "illegal," well Saddam DID violate 1441. So if the US just said that they went to enforce 1441 since the UN isn't capable of doing it itself, then it could have been very very different.
I am avare that WMD was only one among a list of reasons, but it was MAIN reason.
has anybody from state department or any other government official said that they screwed up there? it would be fair to admit mistake to us tax payers.
