We had limits on what we could inspect. We did not abide by those agreements and used the inspectors as spys. Iraq caught us and kicked us out. We then lied and said THEY broke the agreement and went against the UN and then based on that lie, we said it was OK for us to go against the UN and invade / overthrow. None of the story made any sense: even if the US had not been lying, another country going against the UN does not excuse us from doing so (and even worse to go against our own constitution). ... >>> We were all better off when John F.
