Bush attacking Iraq is like the drunk looking for his keys under the lamp light, even though he lost them in the dark--because it's easier to see there.
There is no evidence (like there was--as you pointed out-- about the Japanese) that Iraq was ever going to attack us, or that it had weapons with which to do so.
Are we planning pre-emptive strikes against all unfriendly nations? Can you IMAGINE if Bush had been president during the Bay of Pigs, or any time during the cold war, when Russia had an atomic arsenal aimed at us, as we had aimed at them?
