"Saying Iraq and al-Qaeda have the same beliefs because they're both Muslims is like saying Croatia and Serbia have the same beliefs because they're both Christians". Spot on.
Like literally spot on
EDIT: This is false and not how Islam works.
they do have the same beliefs tho al qaeda are just doing what the quaran tells them to do
that being said, not all muslims are like that and what america did to the innocent iraqis is fucking awful
the government on the other hand is its own issue
@@mirjana5514 They are not doing what Quran said instead they are misinterpreted the Quran
@@mirjana5514 al qaeda does not follow the quran strictly. they follow hadith narrations written by random people hundreds of years ago that have no relation to the quran. they are hadith narration literalists. hadith narrations have more barbaric verses than the quran. an example of one is bukhari. these hadith narrations are not authentic and controversial at times in the islamic world and yet some radicals still follow it.

I would like to visit Iraq one day. It’s a beautiful country with a lot of potential and a rich history.
you coming would be a good decision, we are very hospitable and are tourist friendly unlike some other countries, there are some very awesome landmarks to see, for example if you are coming to baghdad (most likely since thats the most popular airport) i advice going to the shorjah and muttanabi street (both are connected) in shorjah is the mustansiriya school overlooking the tigris.
2:48 i’m an Iraqi and the deaths of that war almost reached 2.5 millions it’s not a half million, my dad is an officer, he was in the crime fighting department at that time they saw hell the internal crimes were up in the sky during the war with Iran and after and also the corruption, he was transferred to the civilian defence department in 1999, one time 3 officers were putting down a fire and the Us boomed them two died and one lived he was injured so badly and he is now blind, this is a story my dad told me about it today after he received a call from that friend and that is one story from a lot of stories , and the law that brought Saddam Hussain down the same law how let Bush go away with what he has done to us What a double standers
At most it was 200k
@@softdrink-0 in the invasion more than 1 million were killed they even used a nuclear weapons in the airport of baghdad the fucking tanks melted down and also they used cluster bombs in a lot of places especially Al-Fallujah in that city 70% of the houses were destroyed, that is just during the war. After the war America worked on unstabilizing the country started a civil war and two terrorism organisations with all of that the deaths can rise easily to more than 2.5 millions

As an American who watched the events of 9/11 unfold live before going to my first day of work at a grocery store, that turtle represents exactly how I felt about that decision.
Moreover, I remember warning my own Mother that Bush Jr. would eventually use all of this as an excuse to invade Iraq, again. Two years later and I was spot on.
Respect from the U.S. I'm sorry that Tony Blair decided to drag you into our mess, though. And I never voted for Dubya. 🇺🇲🇬🇧
Bush did 9/11
Bush Sr. should've gone all the way and crush Saddam in 1991 when the locals would've gladly helped
@@ivario maybe. But it wasn’t planned ahead of time. No substantial occupation plan what is the main problem in 2003.
Many demanded decisive actions though after what happend in September, and I can understand... And Iraq was an open enemy of US at the time, so no wonder many fingers got pointed on it. Fear has big eyes like they say, especially when the fear is national size...And the nation is US size
@@ivario People’s understanding of the Iraq war typically starts at 9/11 and doesn’t go back much further. But all of this stems from issues much further back, mostly with the Iran-Iraq war.
I recommend reading the transcript of the meeting between Saddam and April Gillespie before the first gulf war.
People will often say that during this meeting the US “tricked” saddam into invading Kuwait, but after reading the whole thing it’s clear that Saddam was going to do it either way. Also he clearly threatens the US with terrorism before the US envoy can even speak.
As an iraqi citizen I can confirm that the thumbs up is NOT an insult

It's still hard to believe how little repercussion America actually suffered for just invading a nation. (not the first time obviously)
Well, it turns out when you piss all your neighbours, potential allies, and everyone else off, noone is going to stand up for you. Iraq didn't just peacefully exist until the US showed up, it fought another long and bloody war with Iran, which Saddam started, invaded Kuwait leading to the first gulf war, which Saddam started, and couldn't even get a good relationship with Syria when they were both trying to destroy Israel. Add this to the chemical weapons and persistently hostile policy towards the most powerful country in the world, whilst offering virtually nothing to other powers like China, it's not surprising America didn't suffer any consequences. The US can't just invade any country they feel like and get away with it, otherwise North Korea, Cuba, and Venezuela wouldn't been invaded by now, especially considering how much oil Venezuela has. And can you give any other examples of the USA getting away with this stuff in modern times (because stuff that happened during the literal colonial period isn't exactly reflective of the modern world)? Afghanistan doesn't count, because they did harbour terrorists who basically declared war on the US and didn't give them up.
@@user-cx9nc4pj8w people always over look this. "hur durr civilians died in the war" and then completely ignore the fact that Sadam and his regime reaped what they sowed. The Iraq war wasnt even a failure, look at the growth of Iraqs GDP and theyre level of freedom over the past decade and compare it to the rate of growth under Sadam. There is evidence and arguments to make that iraq is better of now post war than it probably ever would have been under Sadam. If youre going to swing your big dick on the world stage, chances are a bigger dick is going to come down on you eventually.

Calling Iraqi soldiers future ISIS is slander adn incorrect. Many ISIS leaders infact were trained and incidentally got together in US made jails after the invasion , like abu gharib. Even baghdadi received his initiation and hate there due to the mistreatment by the US citizens in Iraq as soldiers.

I think it's worth noting that Iraq in it's creation (Sykes-Pickot) was set up for failure. The borders are strategically done for them to never hold so mush power. Kuwait was a buffer and Iraq itself is a buffer. The whole thing was set up to prevent arabs from getting too unified, too powerful. Well, Saddam did a very good job during his time actually. He achieved a lot. And yes, he did horrible stuff too (I guess. Because if the press instists so much in that, I have to belive it idk...). Same with many middle eastern countries, I'm surprised they are as functional as they are, they were set up for so much failure from the get go.
