Congress authorized President George W. Bush to invade Iraq in 2002 primarily based on concerns about Iraq's alleged possession of weapons of mass destruction (WMDs) and its ties to terrorist organizations, particularly in the wake of the September 11 attacks. The Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution asserted that Iraq posed a threat to the United States and its allies. Additionally, the Bush administration argued that the invasion was necessary to enforce United Nations resolutions and promote democracy in the region. Ultimately, the decision was contentious and has been the subject of extensive debate regarding its justification and consequences.
