There is still the issue of the other Arab states - no matter whether 
they like Saddam or not, they like Western countries waging war on Arabs 
less. To be part of that is to antagonise the other Arab nations.
As an example, Australia is already in a difficult situation with our 
vocal support of the war against terror vs our continuing strong 
relations with Iran now that GWB has announced his Axis of Evil.
Someone recently posted an article which talked about the US 
antagonising billions to support a few million Israelis - maybe Europe 
feels the same way about Iraq?
