Too soon? We waited 12 years while Iraq failed to comply with their surrender agreement with us from the last war. We waited months after Iraq failed to cooperate with a unanimously passed security council resolution for which there were "serious consequences" promised for non-compliance. We were justified in every possible way. Calling it a "vigilante" war doesn't make it such.

I Disagree.
I thought (still think) that we should not have gone to war at the time we did. We did, and I have great respect for the Coalition forces for the way they handled the war with respect to civilians and trying to take the country intact so to speak. However I still think that we went into war far too soon, and I think that we (well America really) shouldn't have this attitude of judge, jury and executioner (and reform officer). Okay so the UN doesn't work, but that doesn't excuse vigilante wars.
