Possibly as a deterrent
no no and no
@Deleted User would you say the us had greater interests than just WMDs and terrorism?
I mean
yeah
Saddam had destabilized the middle east twice by this point, no shit the Bush at least would want to fuck him off
I don't think anyone other than literal time travelers would know shit would go south that much
Well if the US just let him do his thing
Sooner or later he'll just fuckover the entire middle east
^
That means fucking the oil supply
he did in the 80s, the 90s, it was only time until something happens in the 00s
fuck america
^
So the main interest was middle Eastern oil?
no?
muh oil
No
Main interest was defending the US oil supply from the middle East
Iraq isn't a large oil producer, anyone who thinks so has learned politics through intagram memes
But you just said he was a destabilizing factor to other nations that had oil.
I'm fucking confused rn
you worded it like Iraq had oil
that the USA wanted
Sorry, not what I meant
I meant the ultimate goal was to secure oil supply in the region
Would you agree?

Oop nevermind
Yeah their most main priority was to protect Middle Eastern nation's that supply the oil for the US
Iraq produces a significant amount of oil and a regime hostile to the USA threatens their partners in the region, simple as that. The WMDs and terrorists were bs.
no the war was not justified
solving things are not as easy as dropping bombs in everything
not to meantion we only went to war cause 9/11 was rigged by (((them))) when in actuality those terrorists were in saudi arabia and pakistan
the countries we trade for oil with
eeeevil jews rigging everything
omg zog u guys
>middle east an important source of oil
