The resumption of military actions was the result of Iraq violating the cease fire agreement from Desert Storm. Violations that occurred on an almost daily basis for about 11 years. There was no need for Bush to do anything to resume "hot" military actions.
Bush was too accommodating imo.
Correct. Hostilities could have resumed against as early as 8 days after the cease fire agreement because that is when the violations started.
Bush's problem was the American people didn't care that IRAQ was violating the terms, and he had to find a way to sell it to the American People.
WMD was that tool.

In part. WMDs was one issue stated in the AUMF. People seem to focus on that for some reason.
I see it as a bit of a parallel to todays "The Russians hacked the election". It's a meme meant to deflect imo.
