What would the world economy be if the price of oil tripled?
How many people worldwide would die if the world economy went into a depression that rivaled that of the thirties?

No, my argument has always been that UN resolution 687 gave sufficient justification to remove Saddam if he did not follow the agreements he signed.
What I am saying is that if certain people are going to say that it was just a war for oil than they should use a factual argument. It's their argument, not mine, but I think that they should fully explore the ramifications of that argument.
