historically the areas of Kuwait and Iraw have been ruled by the same people, there are also other factors which, while I don't know if they are true or not sound a lot more plausible than anything the Bushists came up with.
1. The theft of Iraqi oil from the Rumeila oil field
2. The stonewalling of negotiations over Warbah and Bubiyan islands
3. Kuwaiti flooding of the oil markets driving down the price and reducing income for the war depleted Iraq
No-one is saying that Saddam was RIGHT to invade but if we had a true world court - he'd have got a fine and a good behaviour bond (until the court case for all his OTHER crimes came up) - the Bushists would go to jail
