To anyone talking about ethics; the Jews have a saying that more or less goes like this: safe one live, and you safe humanity.
No matter how much you try to discredit the reasons for the war; in fact, no matter what the reasons were; in this case, the ends DO justify the means. If you disagree, I suggest you think about the results if we were to reverse the situation; if we were to remedy the error that was this war, and were to put Saddam back in power (as he should be, legally speaking)... how happy would the Iraqi people be with that move, eh?
Talking about ethics is nice, but the real world isn't as black and white as philosophical theories make it appear.
