Convinced is not the right word...most of the nations that support US current action need US support in return for other purposes, others just don't wanna risk to "disappoint" the US...[/QUOTE]Always with the qualifier....
It's impossible for you to believe that anyone could voluntarily go with the coalition because they believe it's the right thing to do.
Sure some people needed incentives, but if you'll look back at the first Gulf War, you'll see that there were nations then that needed incentive as well. That didn't mean that Kuwait hadn't been invaded though, and it didn't mean that most nations didn't agree with the cause.
