An assault on Iraq without the support of much of the international community and over the cries of the antiwar movement — it all sounds very familiar. Yet the bombing in question came on February 16, 2001, two years before the American invasion of Iraq and less than a month after George W. Bush’s inauguration.

And on some level, they were. When Bush entered the White House, the US (with help from the UK) was bombing Iraq an average of three times a week. In 1999, the US spent  $1 billion dropping bombs in Iraq; in 2000, that number was up to $1.4 billion.

The new strategy may also have domestic political benefits for Clinton by deflecting some GOP heat he is under to implement the Iraq Liberation Act. The act, which he signed late last year, gives him up to $97 million to finance an insurrection against Saddam by opposition groups.

Yup all them damn Bush wars - which was a continuation of wait for it ... .a Clinton War.

and we can not forget that Hillary herself was shot at while landing in another of Bill's war zones.
