First we went over the map

Iraq war 2003-2011- called Operation Iraqi Freedom by the U.S. military. conflict that occured between us and Iraq, The U.S. and U.K. claimed that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction (WMD). This was a threat to our security. The UN found no evidence of WMD but believed that Husein was trying to get WMD from Africa. Due to the above intelligence, we invaded Iraq on March 20, 2003. After the Iraqi invasion, it was concluded the Iraq had ended its WMD program in 1991. The invasion of Iraq eventually led to Saddam Hussein being removed from power and later convicted and found guilty of war crimes. He was executed by his own people. other causes-Iraqi government human rights abuses, wanted to spread democracy to the country, and oil interests. Issues in Iraq after war-violence against coalition forces, civil war and sectarian forces, the emmergence of Al-qada in Iraq, and Abu Ghraib torture and prisoner abuse-2004.
