Operation Iraqi Freedom began on March19, 2003. This operation was caused from hostility and tension from the Gulf War. Operation Iraqi Freedom was a military strategy.
There were many steps to this invasion. On April 9, 2003, Saddam’s statue was destroyed. The falling of Saddam’s statue showed that he was over thrown from office.
On March30, 2003, we discovered that there were weapons of mass destruction around Tikrit and Baghdad. On May 29, 2003, we found the weapons of mass destruction.
Saddam Hussein was captured on December 14, 2003. Our mission was completed.
I agree that we needed to invade Iraq became we needed to find the weapons of mass destruction. I also believe that we needed to overthrow Saddam Hussein.
