The Iraq war is a conflict between the United States of America and Iraq. In the year 2003, during the month of March, the United States army invaded Iraq. The main reason and cause for the Iraq war was Iraq’s development of weapons of mass destruction. The Iraqis supposedly were working on developing nuclear weapons, which was creating a threat to the security of the United States of America.

It was during the year 2003 that the president of the United States of America thought that waiting longer could create a nuisance and hence the invasion was planned .

The main cause of the war in Iraq was the information that the US got regarding the development of the weapon of mass destruction in Iraq. However, contrary to the information, the Iraq was not found to hold any such weapons.

There are a number of claims made by the US intelligence and its officials that say that the United states invasion of Iraq was due to the contacts that the US though, Saddam Hussein had with Al Quadi, which is a major terrorist activity group. Other officials said that under Saddam’s rule human rights were not respected in Iraq. All these claims were put up by the US Officials to support the war between Iraq and the United States of America.

Moreover, Iraq was limiting oil it supplied to other countries from being used in the military services.

The fact that Iraq was going to start an Oil Bourse excluding the US dollar did not help any.

As far as the claims are concerned, none of the claims were true. It is interesting to know that on 20 March 2003 the US army along with the army officials of UK and some other allies invaded the Iraq. The invasion was made to get rid of Saddam Hussein’s rule in Iraq. The US army and the armies of the other allies of US were successful in defeating the army lead by Saddam Hussein in a very short span of time. Iraq was occupied and conquered by the US army, and for a short time, a small coalition government was found to have the situation under control. However, the coalition government was unable to maintain order. This led the Iraqi Insurgents to take up war with the US.

Most of the members of the coalition government decided to withdraw from the government and this led to failure. There are scant details of the causes leading to the invasion, and there are a large number of discrepancies and uncertainty related to this topic. Moreover, the consequences are also not clearly visible and still remain a mystery.

There are no official reports or statements that the US could provide to support the war, and its invasion in Iraq. This war has made a large number of people suffer, as there were a number of causalities have been reported in Iraq, as well as the United States military.
