TOPIC :George Bush Shoe Attack
The reasons stated by George bush to start an attack on Iraq in his congress assembly after he received a one-page summary of the National Intelligence Estimate were:
(1) reliance by the United States on further diplomatic and other peaceful means alone will neither
(1A) adequately protect the national security of the United States against the continuing threat posed by Iraq nor
(1B) likely lead to enforcement of all relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions regarding Iraq; and
(2) acting pursuant to the Constitution and Public Law 107-243 is consistent with the United States and other countries continuing to take the necessary actions against international terrorists and terrorist organizations, including those nations, organizations, or persons who planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001.
He started the invasion in iraq to find weapons of mass destruction(WMD) which were posing a threat to world's security.
But according to Iraq Survey Group, military did not find the large quantities of weapons that the regime was believed to possess. On December 14, 2005, while discussing the WMD issue, Bush himself stated that "It is true that much of the intelligence turned out to be wrong". Bush nevertheless continued to assert the war had been worthwhile and confirmed he would have made the same decision if he had known more.
Even though America did not find what they started the war for , the documented civilian deaths from violence due to the war till date are 1,00,029-1,09,296.
Moreover as of February 2010, around $704 billion has been spent based on estimates of current expenditure rates on Iraq war by America .
WHY DOESN'T AMERICA UNDERSTAND THAT IT IS POVERTY AND ILLITERACY THAT IS THE BIGGEST ENEMY OF THE WORLD AND THEY SHOULD TRY AND COMBAT IT WITH THIS KIND OF MONEY.
