I'm still confused with what the significance of WMD's are. The whole deal prior going to war was that Saddam Hussein had to prove that he didn't have them. Bush single handedly got the inspectors back in, Saddam Hussein had every opportunity to avoid being attacked. I think my timeline's right:

Surely you're not saying the war was the result of merely a technical issue about iraq not conforming to the un. Israel does that too.
If WMD's are so unimportant, why was the idea of iraq as an imminent threat built up so much? Why all of the deception about why we needed to go to war? Why the implied links to al quaeda? Why all of the flip-flopping? Either it was about liberation or looking out for our security, the administration just chooses whichever reason is currently most convenient.

I feel quite the opposite. There are very important lessons the US taught the world in Iraq.

#3- It is acceptable to invade and occupy a country with no more justification than the fact that they might attack you in the future.
