Did Iraq think this was a game?

not true... inspections were being made.. and have been at time fairly successful during those 10 years... The inspections resume in full force shortly before the war... was Iraq being difficult? Yes.. but there was progress... the fact is that Iraq was surrended.. they were going no where... their hands were tied... we had no reason to rush things out especially if it would have pleased some G8 countires.. the UN.. and most importantly the Arab world... the US rushing it and going nearly alone was a REAL BAD move damaging their already weak reputation in the middle east... which is basically at the source of terrorists' motivation.. their hate for the US...
