The Iraq Invasion
Abstract
Arguably, the most controversial political decision in decades, the invasion of Iraq has ignited the criticism of both the American public and the international community. Much of this condemnation has focused on the justification and timing for taking such action. During the past two years, there has been much speculation regarding the United States administrations real motives for invading Iraq. The United States administrations original official case for the invasion of Iraq rested on three main issues: Iraqs weapons of mass destruction, links to international terrorists, and the threat of Saddams regime. The present day motives for the Iraq invasion rests on the premise of freedom and democracy, and helping the Iraqi people. The United States government repeatedly and persistently tells the American people that this is the major objective of this campaign.
