We hear a lot about the world’s terrorism. Almost every weekend we can see during daily news explosions and kidnappings. It is obvious that everybody wants to live peacefully and it is normal thing for society that we want to defend our countries from the terrorism. We should be happy that there are some countries in the world which do a lot to safe us from evil, but on the other hand it is not good that administration of the country invade other nation without any rational reason except for gaining financial profits. United States of America as an invader and Iraq as a poor Arabic country are the example. It was a big surprise for everybody when the President of the United States, George W. Bush, decided to attack Iraq (Emery)
First of all, it was a war towards the country, not the Saddam Hussein’s regime. The main and official goal for the war was a freedom for Iraqi people. Everything would be fine when it was a true. Now Iraqi people are more frightened than they were during Saddam Hussein regime. Iraq is defeated, but it is still occupied by the USA’s troops. Bush should have given Iraq a chance to create its own independent government, but US soldiers station in Iraq all the time and Iraqi people are confused because of that fact. After the war the Iraq’s economy is damaged. US Air Force destroyed many strategic buildings during the war. Now Iraq needs them to maintain their economical stability. What is the reason of such Bush’s decision? The answer is simple: US damaged Iraq enough due to Iraq was dependent on them. Now USA can control and gain profits on almost all oil fields and oil platforms (Meyer).
There are many other countries in the world that are more dangerous than Iraq. The best examples are North Korea and Iran. Both of these countries are a huge threat for the humanity. Their governments are very radical. It is almost impossible to negotiate with them. Iran’s religion, Islam, contains very dangerous phrase: jihad (saint war). It is a war towards everybody who is trying to destroy the country. Unfortunately Islamic countries use this phrase to often, even when they weren’t right they would use jihad as a pretext to start a war. North Korea and Iran carry on researching of massive destruction weapon. There are a lot of satellite pictures taken by NASA which show that North Korea has already got a nuclear weapon. Moreover couples of huge explosions were noted by seismic devices. It may be a trace that North Korea is testing its nuclear weapon on the Pacific Ocean. Doubtless North Korea and Iran are the most dangerous countries nowadays. Afterwards we want to know why didn’t Bush aim at these countries? We can easily find out the reason: North Korea and Iran haven’t got such oil sources like Iraq (Muhammed).
United Nations organization was discussing a lot about Iraq. They were exploring whether Iraq had the massive destruction weapon or not. This organization, which contains most countries from all other the world, sent a group of inspectors in purpose to find some evidences. After a lot of searching they didn’t find any trace of such kind of weapon. United Nations decided not to invade Iraq, because they didn’t see a reason. It was a rude shock for George W. Bush. This statement (not supporting war) wasn’t a big problem for USA President at all. Bush and British Prime Minister, Tony Blair decided to invade and defeat Iraq. Why did they do it? Here is another argument that oil was beyond the all rules. Bush attacked Iraq illegally because of breaking the rules of the United Nations. There must be billions of dollars behind this move – oil (Emery).
George W. Bush and his administration gave some reasons for attacking Iraq. However few months ago, we found out that evidences, which were presented by American President, were false and prepared. Millions if people heart it during daily news. I am sure that Bush must have noticed that he stepped across the line you can never step back. After that everything became clear, like completed puzzles, that the only rational reason of attacking Iraq was the oil desire (Meyer)
