@BlauKraut-gg5iu Sorry i disagree. 9/11 caused the second iraq war/invasion. If sunni islamic fundamentalist groups hadnt declared a terror war on western civilisation then sunni led saddams iraq would never have been invaded. Al queda were in iraq. They even morphed into IS there. The west would have had to intervene there at some point just as they did later in sunni afghanistan where the same sunni terror groups resided. Even the countries that opposed the iraq invasion eventually supported the 20 year "war on terror" began by bush in iraq as terror atacks started on them too. As for disastrous consequences. After the invasion the coalition troops were welcomed at first as liberators. As saddam was a murdering tyrant who killed thousands of his own people including the kurds who he used chemical weapons on. Same as he used them in his war with iran. However instead of a quick regime change which was the original plan bush gave rumsfeld overall control. He then disbanded the iraq army and police and tried to force democracy on the country. So the liberators then became occupiers instead and the insurgency started. Thats where the mistake was made for me. Though there is still a form of democracy in iraq now which might improve over time. Also iraq was just part of the 20 year war on terror. Which has now been won by the west as there have been no major terror attacks, fingers crossed, since we pulled out of afghanistan. Obama did say it would take 20 years to win it.
