"Second the United States signed the Chemical Weapons Treaty banning chemical weapons and authorizing inspections that can be demanded by any party that has signed the treaty, what do you have left to declare?"
Interesting point. Did you know the US still has enormous stockpiles of VX and other chemical weapons eventhough they signed the Chemical Weapons Treaty? Due to "technical difficulties" the destruction of the stockpile isn't moving very fast.
On the nuclear issue: the US is planning to build a new generation of smaller, tactical nukes. This will break the non-prolifertion treaty signed by the US.
International treaties don't seem to mean a lot to the USA. Inspections of US weapon stockpiles will probably be very interesting. To bad the US has laws that would deny any foreign inspectors access.

"Yes, Germany was an ally of Japan, but it did not directly attack the United States."
I may be mistaken but as far as I know the
US congres was initially unwilling to get directly involved in WWII. This position changed only after German U-boats started torpedoing US ships near the south eastern coast of the USA and in the Gulf of Mexico. |

LOL. Is this an example of the kind of democracy that the US thinks it can bring to the Iraqi people? One of the pilars of democracy is the freedom to express opinions and to question the policies of our leaders. Democracy doesn't mean: shut up and blindly follow the leader.
