GP Iraq War.

The objectives of the invasion on Iraq, according to U.S. President George W. Bush and U.K. former PM Tony Blair were "to disarm Iraq of weapons of mass destruction (WMD), to end Saddam Hussein's support for terrorism, and to free the Iraqi people." However, the war has accomplished none of the above. Iraq was found free of weapons of mass destruction, Saddam Hussein still supports terrorism and instead of freeing them, the Iraqi people are even worse of. So if the motivation for war not the above three, what could be a possible reason?

Here’s my opinion on the matter: Operation Iraqi Liberation. Or better known as OIL. The President of the United States is sending troops into Iraq for the purpose of getting oil. Without a doubt, I feel that the purpose of the invasion is unjustified, if the sole purpose is just for oil. Not only would that be selfish, it would also be immoral. Many lives were lost during that period of conflict, both of Iraq and American origin. If U.S. President George W. Bush is willing to sacrifice lives for the sake of oil, he is even worse than the man that he had been preaching against. The man also known as Saddam Hussein.
