The war on terror and the Iraq war had nothing to do with each other.

WWII was fought because Hitler decided to invade Poland. I don't think we had much of a choice back then. Saddam wasn't trying to take over the world or pressing his ideals on other countries. There are many countries around the world that are just as bad if not worse than Iraq was.

Pre-emptive strike is not a very good idea either. Thats fine if the US wants to protect itself and rid threats. But what stops Israle from tearing the shit out of palestine? Or N Korea taking on south korea, or Iran marching into Pakistan or Turkmenistan? Once the US does these things, they forefit the power to tell others not to do so.
