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.

Don't compare with the first Gulf War, there was a UN approval on this one. It was actually voted and approved as "the right thing to do". They were so many countries volunteering that incentives were not invovled. And, back then, we didn't need to add Eritrea or Azerbaïdjan to that list to make it look bigger.
Now look at the list of countries of the "coallition", look for yourself, I m not lying to you.
And while you look, ask yourself why so few of them really helped by sending troops and why 1/3 of them want to remain anonymous.
Yes, Bush failed.
