how far u.s.was right in invading iraq on WMD?

Question

U.S attaked iraq on the pretext of it possessing weapons of mass destruction.

Answer 1

way off.......not even close

george bush should be impeached

Answer 2

Let's see During Bill Clintons office Bill as well as the entire congress agreed that there WERE WMD's and that something had to be done. The UN agreed there WERE WMDs and that something had to be done. The French The Brits and the Germans Agreed there WERE WMDs and something had to be done. 4 Years go by I could have hid the entire US NAVY by then! So GW DOES something and NOBODY seems to remember the WMDs but the videos of them saying so are still here. As well as all the DEAD KURDS killed by WMDs.

Answer 3

Let's re-phrase the question,

Who feels better sleeping at night knowing that a tyrant is out of power and that the hope that this tyrant had for obtaining WMD's is no longer a possibility? Chemical agents and paraphanilia were discovered.

Answer 4

Considering that we found over 500 chemical warheads (mustard and nerve gas) a better question is - why was this story hidden by the news media?

Anybody who thinks that we did not find stockpiles of chemical weapons needs to talk to some people who were there.

BTW - how many of you have heard about the Associated Press publishing bogus stories about events in Iraq?

Answer 5

well untill now there's no sign that Iraq has WMD, what my opinion is that U.S. only try to find the best reason to assure UN so that U.S. has righ to attack on Iraq as pre-emptive action. in the name of human right, restoration of democracies in which they try to implant some new tradition directly from the top to bottom, which then it become boomerang to their own position in the eye of international public, now they can't escape elsewhere in Iraq, they soldier will die in despiration because ongoing riots is there and is belief it will continue, U.S will face a lot of loss unless they retreat their soldier from Iraq's land as soon as possible.

Answer 6

There WERE WMD's, people who think or believe there were not , are just plain stupid or live in the dark.
They were moved to Syria, or perhaps someplace else.
Saddam used gas against the Iranians, and mustard gased thousands of his own people...now did he have WMD's?
indeed he did.
had them, used them, we needed to take him out.
Or else why is he being hanged? Doh! the Kurds he gased...ok.

Answer 7

The fact that it was a pretext rather than an "honest mistake" is enough to judge it totally wrong and criminal.

Answer 8

Totally Wrong. Next!

Answer 9

After 3 years of useless war it is clear that Saddam's Regime didn't posess WMDs, as claimed by Bush Administration to be the prime cause of War. Neither there has been any link proved between Saddam and Alqaeeda. To refresh your memory, here is the scenario b4 the war began.

Iraq was divided into 3 zones. the northern and southern zones were declared no fly zones for All kind of Air traffic to Iraqis, be it Civil or Military. Iraqi airline was not even allowed to fly Pilgrims to perform Hajj. Iraq was not allowed to sale its oil on its own behalf, UNO doing the job under Oil for Food program. This Oil for food program was full of scandals including Cickbacks etc, for various stakeholders involved. Thousands of Children died in their infancy due to lack of medicines availablility, and millions other suffered from Malnutrition. UN inspectors had a close watch on Iraq's defence program. Successive Chief UN Inspectors, including Hans Blix denied officially, the presense of any WMDs. (AND THATSWHY IRAQ WAS INVADED, HAD IRAQ POSSESSED WMDs LIKE N.KOREA, US WOULD NEVER HAD TRIED TO ENGAGE WITH IRAQ). US media under the advice of Bush Administration, tried to create false proofs of WMDs, by spreading rumours that Iraq had bought Yellow Cake (Raw Urinium) from Nigeria. However these reports were duely falsified by independant sources. Iraq's Scud Missiles were being dismantled, under the observation of UN Inspectors. Iraq's Air Force was virtually non Existant. Allied forces bombarded whereever they wanted and then claimed "Sorry! we made an error". There was no sectarian violence among Shia and Sunni Muslims. People although were not very happy with the Saddam Regime, but were certainly not ready to throw Garlands on American soldiers that would come to "Liberate" them.

So what was the real cause of war? There are many. #1 is the greed of Oil. The Gas hungry SUVs need oil energy to run. Where that oil comes to USA, apart from Texas? From Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, and other countries. Saudi Arabia is the biggest exporter of Oil to USA, having one of the largest known oil reserves in the world. Iraq comes second.

One important point here is that there may be known oil reservse, but extracting oil from there might not be feasible due to depth of oil reserve and associated cost of drilling etc. Iraq however is another story. In the whole world, Iraq and Saudi Arabia have the shallowest oil reserves. You can extract oil from there with minimum difficulty and maximum profit. The Saudis have close ties with Bush administration and have repeatedly assured their commitment to Supply oil to USA without any interruption. Furthermore an invasion on Saudi Arabia would mean invasion on Islam as the holiest places for Muslim are there. So War in Saudi Arabia was not an easy way to go.

Iraq however was a prime candidate for such an invasion as people, especially the Kurd minority in the Northern Iraq had strong feelings against Saddam's Regime. Sunni and Shia Muslims could have been (and indeed were, after the invasion) incited against each other, creating Chaos, producing still another reason to invade: "USA has come here to bring Peace and Harmony and eradicate Chaos in Iraq".

#2: During Iran-Iraq war of the 80s, USA and all the Arab states backed Iraq both financially and militarily. So the armed forces of Iraq became one of the finest (both professionalism and equipment wise) in the whole Arab World. This created a potential threat to the illegitimate state of Isreal in the Region. Isreal destroyed Iraq's Nuclear reactor using American Supplied F-16s and F-15s. The Saudi AWACS were in the Air during that operation and detected the Isreali Aircrafts. However, as the Crew was all American so Saudi Government was not informed immediately, lest they inform Iraqis to prepare for the attack. Still the scuds in the 1st Gulf war created Havoc in Isreal, so It was needed by Isreal, that Iraq be stripped of ANY weaponry that could pose a threat to Isreal. So You Americans are Fighting Isreal's war with your sons to die and with your Tax money to spend. But you would not get these kind of facts through Time, Newsweek, New york Times, Washington Post, CNN , Fox, etc. because all the media in USA is owned and controlled by Jews.

#3: After the destruction of All the Infrastructure, there would be Massive Contracts of rebuilding Iraqi Infrastructure. Who benifited with these contracts? The Kitchen Cabinet of Bush, including Dick Cheney, Rumsfield, Condoleza, etc.

Ask your representative in Senate or Congress, does his son/daughter is in the Army/Navy/Air force/Marines contingent that is or has been deployed in Iraq/Afghanistan? No would be the answer. They need your sons, daughters, brothers, sisters to fight and die in Iraq/Afghanistan. Not theirs. Theirs are the pricey ones. Yours could be discarded in any situation. Got the picture!
