Get rid of the label "IRAQ WAR" and focus on what was done. It was not a war. The US labeled it that for convenience sake. If you accept their reasoning then stop reading right now.

It was a terrorist act on a grand scale, plain and simple.

Al Queda declared war on the west. Does that negate all of their actions as terrorism?
