Iraq was subsequently marked by violent conflict between U.S.-led occupation of Iraq soldiers and forces described by the occupiers as insurgents.
Their view was that Iraq had violated the terms of the cease-fire by breaching two key conditions and thus made the invasion of Iraq a legal continuation of the earlier war.
If a war can be reactivated ten years after the fact, it would imply that any nation that has ever been at war that ended in a cease-fire (such as Korea) could face war for failing to meet the conditions of the cease-fire.

 Iraq War
Part of the rationale for the war offered by the George W. Bush administration and many Republican and Democratic members of Congress at the time of invasion was that Iraq possessed an arsenal of weapons of mass destruction which posed a growing threat.
The war started in March 2003 when a largely United Kingdom and United States force, supported by relatively small contingents from Australia, Denmark, and Poland, overthrew Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein and occupied Iraq in an attempt to establish a new governmental regime.
Iraq's disarmament was supported by a majority of Congress, who passed the Joint Resolution to Authorize the Use of United States Armed Forces Against Iraq on the 11 October 2002.

The Gulf War was a conflict between Iraq and a coalition force of 34 nations led by the United States.
During the war, Iraq enjoyed good relations with the United States: the United States tilted towards supporting Iraq, despite (or perhaps because of) earlier Soviet influence in Iraq, and supplied it with weapons and economic aid (with the only aberration being the Iran-Contra affair, where some American officials secretly and illegally sold arms to Iran).
In 1997, Iraq expelled all US members of the inspection team, alleging that the United States was using the inspections as a front for espionage, which the U.S. later admitted was true.
