WMD's are Weapons of Mass Destruction.
The UN determined that Iraq had never had WMD
WMD-The Inside Story was created in 2008.
No evidence of WMD Should not force democracy on a country who chose their government themselves
Because Iraq invaded Kuwait and Kuwait is an ally of the US. Iraq's invasion also was a major threat to Saudi Arabia and under no condition could the Western world allow such a concentration of the world oil reserves to be controlled by Saddam Hussein.
The International Community repeatedly ordered Iraq to dismantle its WMD program and surrender or destroy those it had already produced.
At the onset of Desert Storm II, American policy makers came to the conclusion that (1) Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) were stored in Iraq and ready for use, and (2) that Saddam Hussein's policies were destructive to peace in the region, principally because of the alleged WMD's. UN WMD inspectors were dispatched to Iraq, but at first were turned away, which fueled the flames. Finally, the US attacked Iraq, reportedly in order to recover or destroy any WMD, and to depose Saddam Hussein who, if the WMD's existed, had posed a clear and present danger to the US. There are no substantiated reports of Iraqi-based terrorism against the US prior to Desert Storm II. newtest3 After desert storm this provoked the so called terrorist to act, because we as a country invade theirs and made war with their people. so terrorist in other countries saw the people of Iraq as there brothers in arms witch put petrol on the fire 3rd party gazzet

The United States have bombed Iraq but in stategic points with small "bunker busting" bombs and have not dropped a WMD(Weapon of Mass Destruction) on Iraq. The main purpose for these bombings have been to kill high value targets. There have not been any major bombing operations on Iraq yet.
Obama believes that going to war in Iraq was a mistake, which says that all the soldiers that have fought for this country under George Bush might have lost their lives for no reason. Obama opposed expanding the war to Iraq because al Qaeda was in Afghanistan and Pakistan and he felt that the war in Iraq would distract America from capturing bin Laden. When America began occupying Iraq, there was no al Qaeda in Iraq. Al Quadra in Iraq was created during America's occupation of Iraq when America controlled Iraq. The reason for invading Iraq stated by George Bush was that Iraq had weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD). The data supporting the existence of WMD was wrong, either deliberately manipulated by George Bush, or he made a mistake. After it was proven that Iraq had no WMD, George Bush said America must continue fighting until Saddam Hussein was captured. After Saddam Hussein was hung by the neck until dead, George Bush said we had to stay for Nation Building. That means that we must stay until the Iraqi's decide that they want American style government - Not British style, not Indian style, not French style, not Jordan style, not Egyptian style, no they must choose American style government before George Bush will leave Iraq! 70% of all Iraqis and the Iraqi puppet government put in place by America wants the American occupation of Iraq to end. George Bush's popularity has dropped to under 25% in America because he refuses to listen to Americans and end the occupation of Iraq.
Yes, weapons, particulary WMD's (weapons of mass destruction) and germ warfare were mentioned at the time of the invasion.
Critics charged that bush had exaggerated evidence of WMD in Iraq and had misled americans in his effort to win support for the war
