How the Iraq War Changed the World

[@ajplus]

The U.S. news media helped make the case for the country to go to war - 20 years later, Sana Saeed, in the first episode of Backspace’s second season, investigates the worst warmongering in the history of U.S. media. Watch it here -> kzbin.info/www/bejne/q3eueGuJbLBjra8

I agree Bush has lost any credibility to speak about anything outside of his ranch. But the invasions you mention could not be more different... from Russian 8 year effort to avoid such conflict ....to the conduct of the military action to avoid human and other damage BECAUSE Russia looked past the conflict years to the time when all would have to live together as neighbors.

the US overthrew a brutal dictator, Putin is brutalizing a country that elected their leader. It is not the same thing.

I'm sorry you lost family and friends, and as an American I'm apologizing to you for the atrocities by demonic George Bush and other liars in office.

I think the American government knows very well that they've run out of lies to start wars, which they've done for decades or centuries.

Then there was the death toll from sanctions, (lack of western medicine and oil sale sanctions). The USA and other 'willing' countries were convinced that the Iraqi people would be delighted to be saved from the savage Hussain family. It all went to plan pretty much, however the insurgency began, and so the Sunni/Shia violence started, leaving the USA and others with a far nastier situation. USA had no option but to stay and try to contain the violence over a period of years. The plan was to have a quick and overwelming force to remove SH, and to set up and create a fair governing democracy for all, then leave. Because of the Sunni/Shia violence, (and other actors from other countries wishing to destabalize and grab power for themselves), the USA had to maintain a presence in Iraq.

So what's new if millions of Iraqi citizens enraged and billions of people across the planet aggrieved by the 1991 & 2003 US invasion of Iraq that found NO WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION. The US-led invasion of the West resulted to the destruction of the country and caused the deaths of million Iraqi women, old folks, children, livelihoods and destroyed this nation historically called Babylonia. Geopolitical sentiments of humanity shifted away respect for US political leaders, instiutions and all things American. US had alienated people on earth away from them. US made a martyr out of Iraq and former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein no matter how the West picture him dictator. To the eyes of the world it's otherwise. If another state is strong enough to apply the same procedure to the US, surely its political leaders are super aggrieved, and would go to war. The threat to world peace is not the poor, developing and emerging states, but the US and it's Allies arising from being dominant economically and militarily- who want to control and manage the world when they themselves cannot resolved domestic problems such as recession, huge unemployment, border security, immigration, illegal-drugs, home-grown terrorism and home of the homeless people on earth across 50 states millions of Americans to name few social problems.

In an objectively just world, they both would be, but unfortunately the current international system is based on Anglo-American power projection, therefore, the ICC's authority is based on their primacy in the international order. That means American and British leaders, and their close allies are more or less exempt from the ICC's authority unless they willingly submit to it's authority. Had there been an acute and extreme backlash to the Iraq war and opposition parties gained power in either country based on promises to make those leader's be held accountable, then there might have been some maneuvers to turn them over to the ICC, but that didn't happen, unfortunately. For me though, Bush was a willing stooge in all this; he was too stupid to come up with this on his own. The true master minds were Cheney and Rumsfeld. Rumsfeld is dead, and Cheney is not too far behind. Powell is dead too, so that leaves Rice, but her culpability is not as big as those top 3, imo.

I mean, these were professionals, most of them, who actually bought all this shit. I didn't know at the time, all those years ago, why it was so hard for people to think critically, to avoid making sweeping generalisations, to cross-reference information, to engage in open, respectful intellectual discourse.
