The only distinguishing feature that I can see is that Thatcher lied

On the other hand, Blair lied as part of justification to conduct an

Subtle difference I guess.
I wouldn't call it subtle myself - our soldiers were welcome (or
should have been) on our own sovereign territory. Whereas our invasion
in Iraq was extremely hostile.
IMHO it would have been justified if the UN had mandated the move,
They did. In 1991 it gave it then.
