A bit of "OOPS" moment, eh. I think it was Cheney and company convinced Bush Jr to run into Iraq. Smooth move, generated the crap we are in now.

@shavixmir saidBig difference between our invasion of IRAQ,
Where are all our trailer park friends?
Surely they must have opinion on this.
Well, I say opinions, I mean, surely they want to grunt and wheeze about it, like about everything else.
and RUSSIAN invasion of UKRAINE?
The IRAQI people say,
''Please, no more of this spreadin' democracy stuff.''

@earl-of-trumps saidNo, we invaded Afghanistan because they,
At least Bush realizes it
Many theories about why we invaded Iraq, and Afghanistan too. Dems were too silent about it. I think they ALL knew.
the Taliban, were harboring Bin Laden.
We invaded IRAQ because Dick Cheney wanted
to reward his ex-employers, HALLIBURTON,
with fat, no bid government contracts that, inevitably.
reaped BILLIONS of dollars for HALLIBURTON and
various contractor friends of GOP politicos.
The only ones to vote against the IRAQI
invasion were DEMOCRATS...Obama was one of 'em.

EoT: Don't tell me you are that naive, Jimm, Please!!!
They found out OBL was in Pakistan, they still kept "looking for OBL" in Afghanistan.
They found out OBL was DEAD!! They still kept fighting in Afghanistan for many years to follow.

EoT: Jim, Jim, Jim, *anyone* could see the Iraq invasion was BOGUS. Democrats voted against it...? Not Hilary Clinton. Something was going on there and I *think* I have a pulse on it. Maybe. But it is a long story that I cannot even prove.
Anyway, Hans Blitz was the head of the UN Inspection team in Iraq looking for WoMD. Bush didn't want to wait for him to finish the inspection (afraid of the result, I am sure) so he kicked the UN team out, will proclaiming to the MSM - "I'm not going to wait for this to end in a mushroom cloud"
Words that will live in infamy and all I need to hear from the liar, Bush.
actual delivery, GWB:
America must not ignore the threat gathering against us. Facing clear evidence of peril, we cannot wait for the final proof, the smoking gun that could come in the form of a mushroom cloud

I didn't say that ALL DEMOCRATS opposed it,
l said that the ONLY people who did oppose
that 'war,' were Dems. And as for my comments on Cheney & Halliburton....Speculation, however, Cheney, a career govt insider, was appointed CEO of Halliburton, even though he lacked
experience in the private sector...He only headed Halliburton for a coupla' years, was given A HUGE GOLDEN PARACHUTE, and then, as head of a GOP committee to find a VP for presidential candidate, BUSH, decided that he, himself, was to be The V.P.
He was and the rest is history....

The Taliban was suppressing the opium exports. The west is in the heroin business and had to increase opium production. That is why they invaded.
