So posted was nothing except point one which is a question as to whether one can preemptively attack another nation, in direct violation of international law, and not do it by surprise attack. Point one is a debateable point.

However demonstrated is the reasoning behind this president's need to unilaterally attack other nations. No reasons need be provided. Just fears. When confronted, you don't give a rat's ass - which is probably George Jr's same thoughts. That pretty much defines why the US must attack Iraq. The administration doesn't give a rat's ass whether it is right or wrong or even in the interest of America. We have emotional feelings - in this case fear. That emotion is enough to justify an attack on Iraq, Iran, and N Korea. No facts historical or logical required to justify a unilateral attack on other soveriegn nations - principles of international law be damned. But then I only repeat the same points because they remain unchallenged and ignored.
