Although I felt strongly that the mere presence of 'WMDs' was a shaky/nebulous reason to make the GARGANTUAN kind of step like invasion/occupation. Saddam was a stabilizing influence on the region. Yes, he was a terrible person, and I really feel bad for how the Kurdish people have been treated all the way back to Churchill's era and even before. But in 2002-2003, was Iraq really worth targeting? To be blatantly honest, Pakistan, Sudan, and Syria ALL had either WMDs/Radical Terrorists, or both, to a degree that the relatively stable borders of Iraq didn't compare to. |
OIL....
Bush wanted to secure cheap oil.
Thats the real reason behinde the war. These security reports about WMD was just the Lie told to get the other countries onboard with it.
They didnt find any WMD, all they found was a few canistars of mustard gas.
He had no way to attack europe, or the US, or any plans to do so.
He didnt have any nukes.
It was one big lie, to get cheap oil.
