I don't think it's a trivial point. What would it take to justify an invasion? I know we've had this discussion before but now we have a valid, real-life example. Would the intelligence have to be 100%? The weapon verified visually by two, unrelated sources? Could it only be one source, albeit a trustworthy one? Under no circumstances would an invasion be called for?
Now's your chance to hypothetically command the most powerful military in the world, and reap the reprecussions of your actions, or inactions. What should be done?
