Wow. We went to war because Alucard said so? I'm impressed.
Just how many "main" reasons are there? That Saddam had ties to al Qaeda was "a" reason. Having ties and trust, respect, mutual goals, etc are not mutually inclusive.
The reasons changes whenever the old ones got discredited. First it was Iraq was responsible for 9/11. Then, after that was found to be untrue, it was WMD. Then we found out there were no WMD. Then it became a liberal Wilsonian "spreading Democracy". What will it be next?
Anyone with half a brain could see that al Qaeda and Saddam Hussein's ideologies opposed one another, and that Saddam would consider militant, extremist Islamics a threat to his regime.
Funny that Bush and the NeoCons used our emotions after 9/11 to start the wheels of war turning.
