    Alot of people saying sorry in here as if sorry makes woudl build Iraq,
    As if sorry would revive those were killed with your taxes.
    The public was somehow and much extent explicit with the invasion,
    They didn't want Iraq have nuclear weapons as they do ,
    They wanted that America dictates to the other nations,
    Even they were explicit in the first years but got mad when they've seen too much number of their soldiers being killed in the gorilla warfare.
    They weren't mad at the US bombarding the iraqi cities,they weren't mad at all these horrors bcs they believed in America first.

    This is true democracy. The iraqi people wanted saddam back, not the current puppet government. In a real democracy, saddam would be voted in by a huge majority.

    Say what you want about Hussein, Gaddafi, and Assad. They are/were brutal tyrannical dictators I get it, but at least the nations they are run/ran were countries. Iraq and Libya aren’t even countries anymore. They are literal failed states now a days. Libya straight up has slave markets and Iraq is a hotbed for extremist groups all over the country. ISIS literally took advantage of power vacuums that existed in Iraq and Syria. Those countries are in worse situations now then they were before. Of course these terrible leaders had to go eventually, but there’s a proper way to do it. What America/NATO did was not it.
