Nope. Just a contributing factor. Care for the entire list?

Engaged in a 10 year war of aggression against Iran

Invaded Kuwait and set their oil wells on fire

Defied United Nations resolutions for 10 years

Used Oil for Food money to bribe international officials and lay a foundation for a future revival of his power.

Iraq is a prize. It is oil rich and centrally located near many centers of terror, including Iran and Pakistan. Deposing Hussein not only removed him from power, but attracted the attention of every terror group in the region. We have made Iraq one of the central fronts in the war on terror, thereby diverting their resources away from western targets.

The reason for invading Iraq was to avoid another 911. So far, so good.

No, the reason for invading Afghanistan was to avoid another 911. Iraq was a pointless and wasteful enterprise.

We did not go to war because Saddam was "evil". Posts like this are hopeless attempts at justifying a war. We went there to secure oil and establish a permanent base in the middle east. We are protecting the U.S.'s interests, not saving a country from an evil dictator.
