Likened To The Iraq War
Introduction
“The people of the united states and our friends and allies will not live at the mercy of an outlaw regime that threatens the peace with weapons of mass murder.” These words were spoken by President George Bush on the 22nd of March in 2003.
Two days earlier on the 20th American soldiers invaded Iraq and the war between Iraq and the United States of America had begun. To the Americans this was a new type of war on a scale they had never before taken part in, because this time it was not a war of self-defense but instead a war of aggression.
Wars such as the ones that took place in Vietnam, Afghanistan and earlier in Iraq have been likened to the Iraq War. Yet they are set apart from the Iraq War by the aforementioned reasons.
