“Saddam was supposed to supply proof of disposal as a condition of leaving him in power. He didn’t, game over.” Game over with extreme prejudice

Exactly!

He violated the conditions of the peace agreement and we had every right to remove him.

This should have been taken care of in 91, but Bush Sr. was too weak.
