Iraq's invasion was also fueled by Post-9/11 Anger from the American People to invade anything in the Middle East

whereas with Iraq they got defeated soundly during the gulf wars

@Despot Romanicus the Enslaver neocons took advantage of that

Most certainly they did

iraq at least had an airforce and millions of soldiers lol
cuba has a militia and couple of fishing boats

The Iraq War in the beginning was very popular, if anyone remembers, everyone was a hawk in the early 2000s

Mass Media is very effective

You dont fight a war by comparing your army list to the other guy

Political will to invade Cuba is nothing compared to invading Iraq and Afghanistan immediately after 9/11

@Despot Romanicus the Enslaver WMDs for Iraq in 2003

They made just about every argument imaginable to invade Iraq

I dont want to be that guy but youd have to be very dumb or just base geopolitics on a game of HOI4 to believe the only justification to war with a nation is the amount of military it had

looking back it was just trying to get the one that would stick

iraq actually had chemical weaponry
he used it against kurds

yet after the invasion all of it dissapeared

Most of it was found but it was delapitated

Oh course Iraq had chemical weapons in the 1980s, the US sold them

hadnt been maintained

umm what
you dont need to maintin chemical weaponry
you can make them on site
like the terrorists in syria
which mass prudce chlorene gas without a hitch

Donald Rumsfeld meeting with a mustached man.

Chlorine is a poor chemical agent to use in warfare

modern chemical weapons need maintinence to be effective

he used it against iranians and kurds with great effect

You need to alot maintain their delivery systems

Mustard Gas isn't Chlorine Gas

the iranians would beg to differ

He used mustard gas

I think Mustard Gas needs better infrastructure to make and maintain

It also expires

he used chlorene,mustard and tear gas

Mustard gas kinda sucks

against iran

How about not using gas in warfare

shut up germ
you re the one to talk

We didn't use it in the second one

no

it was nerv and mustard gas

Ban all gas against germs
use shotguns against germans

Now where did Sadam get Tabun 🐙
