A quick definition of Iraq War Resolution of 2002:

The Iraq War Resolution of 2002 was a decision made by the United States government to allow the President to use military force in Iraq. This decision was made because Iraq was not following the rules set by the United Nations and was believed to be a threat to the safety of the United States. The government believed that Iraq had weapons that could harm the United States and that there were members of a terrorist group called al Qaida in Iraq. This decision was made in October 2002 and was called the Iraq War Resolution of 2002.

A more thorough explanation:

The Iraq War Resolution of 2002 was a decision made by the United States Congress in October 2002. It allowed the President to use military force in Iraq to protect the national security of the United States and enforce all relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions regarding Iraq.

The Congress had several reasons for authorizing the use of military force. These included Iraq's violation of the United Nations-imposed cease-fire after the liberation of Kuwait, Iraq's continued weapons of mass destruction programs that threatened the United States' interests, Iraq's violations of United Nations Security Council resolutions, and the presence of al-Qaida members in Iraq.

For example, Iraq's violation of the United Nations-imposed cease-fire after the liberation of Kuwait meant that Iraq was not following the rules set by the international community. This was a threat to the stability of the region and the United States' interests.

Another example is Iraq's continued weapons of mass destruction programs. These programs were a threat to the United States and its allies because they could be used to cause harm and destruction.

The Iraq War Resolution of 2002 was a significant decision that had far-reaching consequences. It led to the United States' involvement in the Iraq War, which lasted for several years and had a significant impact on the region and the world.
