War on Iraq
The war with Iraq was instigated by the attacks on America on Sept 11th. The attacks on America caused a fear of terrorism that had to be dealt with. Since going after the actual terrorists would have been a long and frustrating process, President Bush decided that the next best thing would be to go after places that harbor terrorism. Saddam Hussein had created a safe house for terrorists where they were able to gather and unite. I feel that this is the main reason why we invaded Iraq. The United States had to prove that acts of terror and harboring terrorism would no longer be tolerated. I feel than that we used the war with Iraq as a global example of what the consequences would be if such cases of terrorism come up again. Although arguments can be made about the reasons why we should not have been involved, I strongly feel that it was the right action taken. President Bush had said that one of the main reasons for this war was to spread Democracy and bring peace into Iraq. One of the United States main objectives was to seize power from Saddam and give it back to its people. Saddam was known as an evil dictator by his people, and it was his corrupt government that ultimately caused his downfall. The United States has tri
Our war with Iraq was extremely necessary. It took a corrupt dictator out of control and saved the people of Iraq. Our main arguments for this war involve protecting the best interests for the safety of the United States and the Americans inside it. But we also have for our argument that Saddam was corrupt. Saddam had violated many of his peoples’ human rights over his time in power. We feel that the people of Iraq will be better off without Saddam. Many of the Iraqis themselves believe this as we saw much celebrating and joy out of the Iraqis once Saddam was forced out of power. Our point is that weather or not Saddam was building weapons of mass destruction, he has proven over and over that he is a threat to the United States. His threat just became more apparent with the attacks of September 11th. Without the attacks of 9/11 I feel that the United States would have still invaded Iraq sooner or later. It just might not have been until another five years from now. Which is why we should be happy that it has happened already before Saddam could have a chance to become stronger or make stronger alliances with the terrorist groups that view the United States as their main target. The war on Iraq might have had some ulterior motives. These motives differ from the previous reasons stated but it is worth noting that they do exist. The first has to do with President Bush and his administration. After the attacks on September 11th the American people were looking for justice. Someone had to take the blame and then receive the punishment. Without this justice President Bush would be seen as a political failure and would stand no chance to be re-elected. Therefore this group that was held responsible was the Taliban. But most of the Taliban could not be found, and their leader Benladin was hiding somewhere in Afghanistan. After sometime of going after Benladin the Bush administration had to find another target. They chose a country that had been harboring terrorists and had been producing weapons of mass dest
