Why does this not make sense?
We went into Iraq in 1991, kicked their ass. Because we have no plans to create a huge empire, we didn't go into Iraq. Instead, we allowed their government to remain in power by signing a peace treaty. Nearly instantly the peace treaty was violated. It got to the point while Clinton was in office that they were shooting at us daily. I'm a former United States Marine; I'm pretty fucking confident that when any country launches a missile at a US warplane it's an act of war. This went on for years.
You say we went "back in" looking for WMDs. I say they declared war on us by firing at us on a daily basis.
While we are talking declaring war, isn't the Israeli naval blockade an act of war? Not to mention the missiles hitting Israel on a daily basis?
