Strange

So then, the war would not have been neccessary if Saddam lived up to the terms of the UN resolutions...

So if UN inspectors were on the ground in Iraq, with proactive co-operation from Iraq, even if coerced, and unfettered access to the entire country with no notice inspections anywhere at any time then we would not have needed to go to war?

Then war was not neccessary. Because AFTER the resolution authorizing force, Sadam did capitulate and allow inspector in, and co-operated with their requests, even pro-actively. This should have been enough to determine the WMD threat was not real. At least having UN inspectors on the ground should have been enough to delay the war until their work was done in a few months. But Bush RUSHED to get a war started in order to deliberately not allow the UN inspectors to finish their work.
