Depends what side of the argument you're on.
There have been many invasions which have been stopped through violence, this changing the invading country's leaders mind that invading would be a good idea.

I think it may be a case of the BBC being the worst, apart from all the rest.

I'm starting to think you're talking about a perfect world after all
To me, it is looking like Mr B Liar colluded with the Bush administration and decided to attack iraq, then to try and cover his back when the legality looked dubious by trying for a second resolution (if he was serious he would not have gone to war without it, otherwise what was the point of trying for it?), the AG spoke with bush's lawyers and changed his mind, parliment was betrayed and mislead and our forces were sent into a mess.
Someone please remind me this is the UK, because from the above it doesn't sound like it!
Sure the outcome is potentially a good one, Iraq no longer under the rule of an "evil dictator" but it could have been handled so much better.
