"Yet, Iraq DID attack Kuwait. And there were NEVER any peace terms SAVE THE CEASEFIRE THAT IRAQ violated.
So the US was still acting under it's 1992 UN Madate. "
LOL!!!!!!!!! to the 1000th power!
Give me a break. Surely you jest! You don't? Look, BB, Iraq's attack on Kuwait was utterly repulsed and completely and decisively defeated by the USA, Britain, and allies in 1998, was it not? End of frikkin' story on that little episode.
I don't give a good goddamn about some selfserving lawyers bullshit about the "1992 UN Mandate". That's no excuse at all for a unilaterally launched brand new all-out war of invasion and aggression by the most powerful country in the goddamn world on Iraq, which was nothing but a helpless debilitated punching bag in 2003, and no threat to any other sovereign nation in the world at that time.
Your fucking 1992 UN Mandate excuse is a worthless stinking fig leaf tacked over a great power engaging in naked aggression for its own self-interested purposes.
