You are an idiot. Iraq was defeated in a war. The victor dictates the terms of surrender. A defeated nation has NO "right of defense." ZIP. ZERO. NADA.
Did you know that Japan cannot have a military? Or is your understanding of history as deficient as your understanding of "rights."
Under what terms does a nation have no right of self defense? Another bullet in the head, eh?
Just as an individual man has the right of defense, so a nation composed of men has that right.
