I think they did, becaue they knew iraq would losea nd they didnt want ot lose face woth the USNorway sided with the US because we are an ally of the country plus the majority of the people here thought US did the right thing, you really think that Germany and France lost face by not siding with USA.
Crazy? Maybe, but it will happen. No empire lasts forever, and China and India are rising nations - many people...more than the US...if they arm themselves and get real angry it's gonna be one hell of a war against the Western world. Even the great Roman Empire went down, so the USA will definitely too.
