I think you mean Afghanistan? They were housing Al-Qaeda. Course Iraq pre 2003 had a Christian vice president. Women were in the workforce. Saddam Hussain was praised by Donald Trump as a man who killed terrorists. Yes Saddam was authoritarian. Yes, he was a dictator but most of the Iraqi people including Christians Wanted him in power. And the country was much worse off after the American invasion… member ISIL taking over it was a disaster.We were on the hunt for terrorists. Who gives a shit if Iraq was involved in 9/11? Cuz its not fair? Pfff, tell that to Kuwait. Iraqis had no problem spending plundered Kuwaiti gold.
The truth is, Iraq became ground zero for terrorists who wanted to attack the US. They came in from all over the Middle East to kill Americans, and we slaughtered them at will. We DECIMATED Al Qaeda, which then caused a new group to spawn in the Middle East.... ISIS, and then we decimated them too.
Are you going to telll me about all the civilian casualties now? I dont give a flying fuck about them. Their deaths put the fear of god into all the bad leaders in the world. No one wants to end up like Saddam hiding in a hole, let alone end up like Gaddafi.
We sent a message to the world... "Fuck with the US and you get the pointy end of the stick, and maybe youll get the pointy end of the stick even if you DONT fuck with us. Tread lightly around crazy American's."
I couldnt be happier with the results.
Anyways, we spent trillions of dollars on Iraq. Big waste of money. Got nothing for it. We should’ve either completely taken over the country or not gone at all.
