I have a question.
Since the reasons/justifications our government used for attacking Iraq are continuously being revealed to be false. Doesn't that make our invasion illegal and the killing of Hussein's sons outright murder or assassination?

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying they were saints, and if the reports are true perhaps no two people have ever met a better ending.

What I'm getting at, is if our aggression is built on lies and we have targeted and killed the children of a nation's rightful leader, aren't Bush, Blair, and the coalition of the willing putting targets on their own families and the royal family as well in Blair's situation?

Considering the rise in terrorist recruitment, and the rise in 'chatter' along terrorist communication lines, I'd be very nervous if I were the head of state of any member of the coalition of the 'willing'.

Maybe we'd all better start praying for their families.
