Us Invasion 2003-Called Operation Iraqi Freedom by the United States military lasted from March 2003 until  December 2011, The main cause was that the US and the UK claimed that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction this was a threat to our security in 2002 the UNSC (most powerful UN group) called for Iraq to completely cooperate with UN weapon inspectors to verify that Iraq was not in possession of WMD the UN found no evidence of WMD but believed that Hussein was trying to get WMD from Africa Due to this we invaded Iraq on March 20 of 2003. After the invasion it was concluded that Iraq had ended its WMD program in 1991 and had no active programs at the time of the invasion. The invasion of Iraq led to an occupation and the eventual capture of President Hussein. Hussein was tried in an Iraqi court of law and executed by the new Iraqi government (we did not kill him Iraq did). Other causes- some accused Hussein of harboring and supporting al-Qaeda but no evidence of a meaningful connection, Iraqi government human rights abuses, wanted to spread democracy to the country, oil interests, President Bush wanted to "fix what his daddy messed up".Issues in Iraq after invasion- Violence against coalition forces, Civil war and sectarian violence, the emergence of of Al-Qaeda in Iraq, Abu Ghraib torture and prisoner abuse 2004.
