Can anyone give me a good reason that invading Iraq was justified?

Also the term "war" should be termed very loosely here, Im wondering how many soldiers would have signed up if it was a land war against North Korea or China.....

Saddam had WMD........
Liberation of Iraqis.....
Saddam's kids were assholes......
Al Qaeda was in Iraq.......
Fighting for our freedom.........

How many more reasons you need ?

Saddam did NOT have WMD's.
We didn't liberate the Iraqis, we killed about a quarter million of them and threw their country back into the stone age. This is just American ethnocentric ideology that we needed to "liberate" them in the first place.
Saddams kids were assholes? Who gives a fuck?
Al Qaeda was in Iraq. But Al Qaeda is in EVERY Meslem country and many non-Muslem countries. You want to invade them all? The main Al Qaeda location was Saudi Arabia, but the US would never get tough against them for political and economic reasons.
Fighting for our freedom? This is just pure bullshit. How is invading Iraq fighting for OUR freedom?

My bad gearbear..thanks..

Also..
What branch and what job did you do.. And ...did you like Hurt Locker

I'm in the Army. I was called back after being out for three years and they put me with a Georgia National Guard unit.

For the first half of the deployment I was on an Embedded Training Team, helping to train the Afghan National Army.

For the second half, I was a tower guard. Pretty boring but safer. I didn't have to go on convoys through Kabul.

Thanks for the well-wishes (almost) everybody.

I was in Afghanistan, by the way.

Did you have to study anything about their culture etc before you went? I know that the norwegian soldiers in Afghanistan have to go through six months of theory about culture, religion and language before they go. Just wondering.

Nothing that in depth. We had a couple of classes on culture. Things to do and not to do.

I read a handbook that the Marines put out that was very good, but it is not required reading for the Army. Should be, though.

The Afghan National Army smokes a ton of weed and opium don't they?

I heard those guys like to get high as hell out there. My buddy told me stories about them just smoking weed and opium from morning to night every day.
