Both Bliar and Bush deserve to be tried for war crimes. Their invasion of
Iraq
was just as legal as Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, or Argentina's invasion of
the
Falklands.

Nope. I'm no Bush apologist, but this little bit isn't correct. Iraq
was in violation of several agreements, most importantly the one they
signed immediately after the first war, which they started.

I think that the gist of the argument is that Bush and the US had no business
enforcing agreements made in behalf of the UN (resulting from action taken under
the auspices of a UN resolution) when the UN itself wasn't ready to either take
or sanction that kind of action in its behalf.

That means that we can't hide behind the UN's skirts and claim that the devil
made us do it.
