Would you have supported the war in Iraq if...

...the Bush administration had sold it to us as a humanitarian mission and if we'd gotten UN support? I'm asking because Al Franken and Lila Lipscomb were just discussing that and saying that they'd have supported the war under those conditions. I'm a bit ambivalent. I think things probably would have gone better in Iraq under those conditions but I still think that the mission would have been a diversion from the war on international terrorism. Selling the war as a humanitarian mission and getting UN support would still not have changed the fact the Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11. Your thoughts?
