Okay, since you evidently can't understand big words:* Saddam had WMD
* Saddam had connections to al-Qaeda
* Saddam had attempted to assassinate President Bush
* Saddam failed to abide by the conditions of the UN ceasefire
* Saddam refused to cooperate with UN weapons inspectors
* Saddam oppressed the Iraqi people with murder and torture
See, it's not that difficult if you're literate.

And how many of these were presented to the UN?One: WMD's.

Ummcan you provide us with this literature?
We're not convinced... and you can't "prove us wrong" in an argument till you do that (unless mathimatically).
I mean the american explinations for war changed so much that it was laughable at times.
There were no WMD's found
It's VERY hard to move WMD's without detection, or leaving evidence... even during a war.
There's still no sadam to al-queda link... not unless you believe that SCO has nothing to do with microsoft and it owns all linux software ever made and that can fesably ever be though of :)

Sorry mate,but when the argument consists of "The Americans only ever gave ONE reason for the invasion of Iraq", then it is indeed mathematically possible to prove it wrong -- simply by proving that there was more than one reason. QED.

Actually, as mentioned above,They only presented one LEGAL reason for invasion to the UN, and it wasn't true.
Take your QED elsewhere (especially considering that this was originally an argument about the separation of church and state). You've proven nothing.

It was the only one the UN would listen to,because it was the only viable, legal reason for invasion that america had. Strangely, it wasn't even true.

Fool. Carlyle Group - bin Laden - al-Qaeda.
"* Saddam had attempted to assassinate President Bush"
President Bush has attempted to assassinate Saddam.
"* Saddam failed to abide by the conditions of the UN ceasefire"
The US has failed to abide by many UN agreements.
"* Saddam refused to cooperate with UN weapons inspectors"
That is a lie, as there were actually inspectors on the ground. Bush refused to cooperate with UN inspectors, in truth, just prior to the (second Bush) invasion.
"* Saddam oppressed the Iraqi people with murder and torture"
The US oppresses Iraqis with murder and torture. In the same prisons, like Abu Ghraib, no less!
"See, it's not that difficult if you're literate."
Must be eminently difficult for you then. Why DO you despise reality so very very much?
You've become tiresome; and your bullshit, trite, weather-thinned and vacuous. Our patience wears thin.
