Ok. I'm not a pro-war person in general, but didn't the US congress vote in the 90's to make overthrowing Saddam official US policy?
Furthermore, Saddam was a danger to the reigion, because he invaded kuwait and commited mass genocide to the Kurdish with chemical weapons? He had used chemical weapons on people before and thus it was a pretty natural assumption that he still posessed them.
Another thing I read was in his later years he moved away from his more secular roots and became more and more religious.
It seems to me that there was a multitude of reasons to overthrow Saddam. Of course the whole invasion was mishandled greatly by the government in regards to its media campaign.
I'm certainly not pro the war, but since we're in it we might aswell make it work as best as possible.
