Oh, there are plenty of good reasons. The only question is whether you agree with them.
Anti-war people will tell you that as long as we can contain Saddam, there's no valid reason to oust him. Pro-war people will tell you that containing Saddam is a dangerous delusion. They'll say that if you combine the ridiculous amount of money he's making smuggling oil with his terrible record with aggression and weapons regulation, he's obviously a bad fucking timebomb.
The fact that his plans of post-Saddam recovery included plans for oil is only fiscally responsible. If that hadn't been taken into account with plans for aggression, I'd be very disappointed.
