The War on Iraq

What was the main reason for invading Iraq? In 1992 Defense Secretary Dick Cheney declared Bush Sr. was wise in his decision not to invade Baghdad and “get bogged down with the problems of trying to take over and govern Iraq.” Fast forward to April 1993, a day before George Bush Sr. visited Kuwait City to commemorate the international coalition victory against Iraq. Kuwait authorities arrested 17 persons believed to be involved in the plot to kill Bush Sr. Using explosives hidden in a Toyota. To say that it was only the Bush administration having problems with Saddam Hussein is wrong.
