It Was a "Cease-Fire"?????

At the following link you will find an interesting tid-bit of info:
http://archives.cnn.com/2002/US/11/08/iraq.resolution

It mentions that Iraq was believed to be in violation of "the cease-fire treaty it signed when Baghdad lost the 1991 Persian Gulf War. "

CEASE-FIRE?

You mean that war never came to an end?

Does that also mean that (gasp) when Iraq violated that treaty and the UN Resolutions that followed that (gasp) we were actually justified for going back in there??????????????????????????
