RileyDove,

Read UNSCR 687 which was the 'ceasefire' for GW I, notice I said ceasefire - if Saddam failed to meet ANY part of the UNSCR the war was back on

Iraq must "unconditionally accept" the destruction, removal or rendering harmless "under international supervision" of all "ballistic missiles with a range greater than 150 KM and related major parts and repair and production facilities."
Remember Saddam's frantic atempts 12 years later on the eve of GW II to get rid of the illegal long-range rockets?

Twelve years grace - 687 there's the mandate

Just saying GW2 was illegal dosen't make it so - as Koffie knows

Unless Kosovo was too?
