They were hoping to capture Saddam and bring him to the US, so he can Bush could have a for-real dick measuring contest.

Was going to be a real scientific measurement too. They had brought in the atomic slide-rule in anticipation.

Saddam was a big walking piece of evidence of the horrible poo poo that the h.w. bush/rumsfeld/cheney cabal was capable of. Its like in the mafia when they would whack a hit man to keep him quiet. Like even if everything was basically known, he could have laid some real damning proof out. Same reason they hid the chemical weapons the us did find, because they were leaky and had western markings on them.

On 9/11, there was some bad folks that came in from over there.. in that area, and we, as a nation have to protect our interest. So we got our folks geared up, brave men and women of the armed forces, and told em, go get that mess cleaned up. And looking back now, I guess sometimes you know, you want to have a throw back. Every quarterback has a throw he wants to have back. But heck you just gotta suck it up and run the next play, son.

GW Bush and DICK Cheney decided to create a destabilizing effect in the region that they KNEW would lead to factions like ISIS destabilizing the region for decades! It is a planned effect to maintain control of this region through chaos

Hmmmm how cheap is oil if the country never has a chance to emplace a goverment that can defend themselves from America!

Because neoconservatives have a mentality of constant war, and after the fall of the Soviet Union they needed a new enemy.

They replaced it with the Axis of Evil, consisting of Iran and Iraq, two countries who just over a decade earlier had fought one of the bloodiest wars of the 20th century, and North Korea because why not.

Commonwealth antiquations of war-time conventions clearly creates an unprecedented state of discontention that is manufactured by war-profiteers invoked largely by the BUSH whitehouse in efforts to contain regional authority invoking an Iraq that is an effectual QUAGMIRE of first-world predeterminations
