I listened to an interview with P.J. O'Rourke while the Iraq war was going on, and he didn't sound against it to me. In fact, I can't recall the exact wording, but I remember he made some comments about how the Iraqi army deserved what they were getting, based on the damage they caused to Kuwait in the first Gulf War.

Good to hear, but during the build up to war I went on a Libertarian homepage and found them opposing the war and using this famous O'Rourke quote:

"I can understand why mankind hasn't given up war. During a war you get to drive tanks through the sides of buildings and shoot foreigners - two things that are usually frowned on during peacetime."
O'Rourke, P.J.
