I know it all started when Saddam Hussein (the leader of Iraq) tried to take over the small country Kuwait. We sided with Kuwait since we always try to side with the country that is fighting for freedom. Once we got Saddam out of power and Kuwait was freed we were then after the Al Queda because of Osama bin Laden (9/11 terrorist). Although, they did not belong to a country (and we cant declare war on a person) we made up the WMD (weapons of Mass Destruction) in Iraq this way we can stay there and look for WMD's when we were actually trying to locate Osama.
