You really don't know what you are talking about.
The terms of the ceasefire following Desert Storm required Iraq to adhere to a No-Fly Zone over the Kurdish region of Iraq. It required Saddam to fully disclose all of his WMD programs and munitions. He did neither. It's simple math, and the legality of the war has nothing to do with how the invasion was sold to the American public.
