Answer 1

Don't ask Yahooers to do your homework for you. Take the time and research it yourself. Anything on here is going to be considered hearsay anway. Don't cheat yourself.

Answer 2

1. It had nothing at all to do with 9/11.

2. On September 12, several neocons in the administration were looking for ways to tie 9/11 to Saddam, whom they'd had in their sights for ages.

3. Far too much reliance was places on the false assurance of Ahmed Chalabi, who got lots of money from the US government for maintaining a kind of Iraqi government-in-exile and was primarily responsible for the promise that the soldiers would be greeted with flowers etc.

4. The Pentagon and the State Department weren't speaking to each other, causing huge problems.

5. The State Department had prepared a plan for post-war reconstruction, which the Pentagon ignored.

6. Rumsfeld kept overriding his generals when they told him how many troops they would need to (i) take, and (ii) hold, the country. Look what happened.

7. There were never any weapons of mass destruction, and this was known in advance.

8. Nor was there any expedition to Nigeria to buy uranium, although Bush put this assertion into his State of the Union speech.

9. Only six people currently in the Green Zone speak the language.

10. The decision to completely disband the Iraqi army and police force meant that a great many men who had weapons no longer had jobs ... work that one out.

11. Nobody has formally counted the number of Iraqi dead, which is bad enough in itself, but is probably by now running into the hundreds of thousands.

12. The US Army dead has topped 3,000 and the President has not pitched up for a single coffin on its return home.

13. Blair appeared to accept the results of the Iraq Study Group report, until Bush rejected it, at which point he turned on a dime and disappeared into the middle distance.

14. No senior member of the US or UK administration has a child who is currently serving - or could serve - in Iraq.

15. 12% of Iraqis have left the country since the war began - mostly professionals, which the country needs in order to rebuild itself.

16. The US Army, on occupying Baghdad, guarded only the Oil Ministry and its associates, but completely failed to stop the looting of all other government and quasi-government entities.

17. The average Iraqi citizen now has less access to the essential services - water, sewerage, electricity, etc., than before the war.

18. When asked in a public press conference if he would have done anything differently, Bush completely lost it, complaining that they hadn't rehearsed that answer.

19. Blair refuses to debate Iraq in any meaningful sense in Parliament, the latest being his absenting himself from an important debate because of a 'prior engagement' to give a talk to some businessmen.

20. No member of the 'coalition of the willing' is any more safe now than they were when Iraq was first invaded; for example, whereas Saddam was on bad terms witj Al Qaida, the country is now overrun with competing 'terrorist' forces - I use the term 'terrorist' to cover a whole variety of sins and interests.

Answer 3

01- Everything was a lie : false reasons
02- Bush and his friends won the big contracts for the reconstruction
03- Irak is out of control now
04- Saddam is 6 feet under the ground
05- civil war
06- thousands of killed people
07- prison tortures and humilations
08- no WMD
09- more and more allies withdraw their troops from Irak
10- Irak was given a Democratie though it is unstable
11- there were no terrorists before the war
12- the US population starts to dislike this war

Answer 4

Can you be more specific on your requirements? Are you just looking for any random information? Like that the war's been going on for nearly four years? It's claimed the lives of over 3000 U.S. service men and women. It's disintegrated into a civil conflict between Sunnis and Shiites. It would help to know what kind of facts you need.

Answer 5
