I agree that in the end Iraq is going to end up a better place than it was before the war, there is no denying that Saddam was a tyrant who had comitted terrible crimes against humanity. However if war can be waged purely to remove a tyrant, I don't think Saddam would be top of the list and they should have said that was their intention before they did it.
The evidence of any WMD program was slim to none at the time of the war and none surfaced during the war, the intelligence saying there was was either a pretense for war or a complete and utter cock up - I'm not sure which. However the intelligence community undeniably should have known that the program had ended. There is no denying that Saddam once had WMDs and a WMD program, however this seems to have ended long before the war began.
There is no evidence that Al-Qaeda was established in Iraq before the war, Saddam's Baath party was strictly secular and he would have seen Al-Qaeda as an affront to his power.
Also can you link me to the part of the Geneva convention that gives the right to revoke the sovereignity of a nation?
