who gave the idea to to do the war in Iraq? was it the president or the security professional?

Question

i read that the idea of the war might be the security professional but don't know. they told me that they were the ones that gave the advice to bush.

Answer 1

It was mostly the intelligence, people from the CIA, who then passed it to the president, and then congress. To the final decision was made by the president and congress. As I recall, the CIA was ultimately against the idea, or at least, its director, George Tenet.

Answer 2

Wow. What college district is that? Presidnet George W. Bush prosecuted the war in Iraq for particularly some reasons. the single maximum widley understand and least understood, advert to do with weapons of Mass Destruction. maximum folk think of that the assumption became to pass inot Iraq and discover vats of weaponized botulism or almost complete nuclear contraptions. in reality way less concrete--Iraq had made consistent efforts to stymie inspections and had in no way provided an entire accounitng of their WMD components. there have been such components that have been time-commemorated to be in Iraq in 1992 and in 1998, with the help of 2002, the question became what had occurred to those materails--what were destroyed and how, the place have been they, would desire to any of this is validated? Hussein had additionally given plenty help and help to terrorists. We were engaged in Afghanistan for almost a 365 days and it became time-commemorated that al Qaeda contributors have been fleeing--between the secure havens they have been fleeing to became Iraq--partly the invasionwa approximately denying those havens and combating help to different terror communities as nicely suhc as Hamas and Hezbollah.

Answer 3

Iraq intel was shaddy at best and was then used and given to congress bye G Bush. G Bush then used that information to pass to others via congress. G Bush passed off the idea of Iraq as something congress had issued. Iraq war is based of lies or farsk from G Bush himself.

Guy told me yester that I should seek out and prove him wrong. I told him that their was this little box below called know your source. He was a rep cons and informed me that he was correct and that I should try to disprove him.

Well, guess Ill just turn it around and call this the real truth, even though it is. I'll let you prove me wrong this time around.

Its only far correct me if I am wrong. Do unto others as you would have done unto yourself. Returning it as if he had done it to himself.

Thanks all, and you can only thumb me down if you prove me wrong.

Answer 4

Bush wanted war with Iraq even before the 2000 election. People who were paying attention would know that.

Answer 5

It was done by some guy named 'Curveball' whom supplied the erroronous information which contained both fixed and flawed intelligence.

Though the CIA warned that the case for invading Iraq was weak, Bush decided to do it anyway--on the false assumption that Iraq was a threat to our national security and had WMDs; and was building nuclear weapons.

Answer 6

Bush had Iraq as a target before he was even elected. Keep researching. the truth is out there.

Mahal - the Iraq Liberation Act said that the U.S. "supported" a Regime change. No where did it say that it would be responsible for making that happen or for occupying Iraq.

Answer 7

It was clearly resident Bu$h's idea, then he found people to have around him who will to compromise ethics, values, and inmost cases the law to get the so -called "Intelligence" he wanted or needed to just his, War for Oil

Answer 8

One of two things:

1. Bush's personval vendetta at the cost of soldier lives.

2. Oil CEOs getting a say into it.

Nothing else would make sense.

Answer 9

Bill Clinton. Iraqi Liberation Bill, 1998. I'm pretty sure he intended it to be Gore's big debut.

Answer 10

The idea was a policy written by Bill Clinton in 1998.

(I doubt that a single liberal would acknowledge this.)

Maybe I should find it. I think it was an executive order. If I can track it down I'll post a link here.

This link will lead you to the Iraq Liberation Act signed into law by your friend AND mine, William Jefferson Clinton.

Looks like a_wood beat me (and he got the name of the act right, too).
