Let's back up and agree on a few things first.

  • the US lied about WMDs and it knew it was lying. The UN was in Iraq and couldn't verify one word.
  • after we invaded Iraq, we were aware there were no WMDs within days or weeks, but no one demanded we leave with our tails between our legs.
  • the US became one of the most despised countries on the planet because world leaders trusted Bush (global polls show us Obama fixed things and Trump did it to us again).
  • the US is now considered a bigger threat to democracy than China and Russia (new poll).

We invaded a country that never did anything to us and then we called them the terrorists. Now, you're trying to justify this by coming up with conspiracy theories. The war basically ended with the surge, which wasn't a surge at all. In fact, it was the opposite. The US stopped killing innocent people and they stopped killing us. We put more people over there who hid in bunkers and did nothing. They didn't fight more, they hid. Fighting and bombing didn't work, hiding did.
