The US invaded in March of 2002 and we have been there ever since!
Mitt Romney had nothing to do with US War in Iraq. He was not a federal politician at the time the Iraq War was declared nor did he have any federal involvement when President Obama withdrew the troops from Iraq. Furthermore, he was opposed to "ending the conflict prematurely" when he was asked about during the 2008 primaries.
Yes. I have no doubt the American people have had enough!
Clinton and Obama were the US Presidents in the 1990s and 2000s who did not invade Iraq and/or fight against Saddam Hussein.

Yes and no. He did not start any wars, but he inherited two wars from President Bush. Mr. Obama ended most of the US involvement in Iraq and brought the vast majority of the troops home in 2011. He is currently overseeing the end of US involvement in Afghanistan, and expects most of the troops to be home by next year.
Yes and no. When he became president in 2008, the US was still at war in Iraq and Afghanistan, two wars begun under President Bush. One of Mr. Obama's campaign promises was to end US involvement in Iraq and bring most of the troops home, a promise that he kept. However, the US is still involved in Afghanistan, although there is a plan in place to end involvement there in 2014.
During his presidency, Barack Obama implemented policies to wind down the US involvement in wars, particularly in Iraq and Afghanistan. He withdrew US troops from Iraq in 2011, fulfilling a promise to end the war there. In Afghanistan, Obama announced a drawdown of troops, aiming to end combat operations by the end of 2014. However, it is worth noting that the situation in both countries remains complex and conflicts continue despite the efforts to reduce US military presence.
The US had a Status of Forces Agreement with Iraq until December 2011. At that time, the agreement expired and has not been renewed.
Yes. There was no US formal declaration of war, but there was US military involvement, so they are considered "conflicts" in US jurisprudence. However, for the Iraqis, Vietnamese, and Koreans, they were certainly wars.
The last US declared war was WWII.
The Iraq president of that time was Sollaam Kusseon. M
