So because one country government did something u feel is "wrong" in the past under a different president, it makes what putin is doing rn right that's that's stupid ass logic
Its so easy to understand but some how you cant? A leader of the US said that we were going to war. The first part of the war was fine like in this documentary but then they didnt pull us out. Its stupid to hate on the civilians when they disagree with something another country is doing being that the civilians/soldiers are not the ones that chose to go to war. Thats like me hating on russian civilians because their leader is making them go to war. The Iraq invasion is pointless and so is the Ukraine invasion. The US shouldnt have been in Iraq long and Russia shouldnt be in Ukraine.
@@sirbacon1617 You live in the US, I assume. Given the history of the US, and as you point out , the fact that the president's power is not restricted (tough it prides itself as a democracy) ,a sovereign nation must possess the ability to defend itself. Given the untrustworthiness of US leaders, the expansion of NATO can't be allowed. If you see a venomous snake that has killed two people in front of you, slowly creep towards you, do you let it bite you first or do you kill it at once? So Putin is securing a buffer zone between NATO nations and his country, it's the only way he can secure his interests. As you yourself say, your leaders are whimsical and don't give a damn about international laws . And the fact that Putin's popularity surged in Russia after the start of the SMO, is proof that Russians support the operation.

One time the u.s. sent soldiers to back up united fruit company in Central America. They abused the workers never invested in the local infrastructure.
I gave birth to my youngest son on 20.03.2003, through emergency C section, when I came round from the general anesthesia, and able to make sense of the world I was told the war started. And since than, I always remember and pray for pregnant women who were in labour on that day and what happened to them. The fearful feeling still resonate with me every anniversary of the war.
How many attacks were prevented because of this war? If attacks happened, you’d all cry, “why didn’t we invade sooner?” You must study and read before being part of a herd.
Removing Saddam was the biggest mistake we could have possibly made. Prior to that, the Middle East was relatively stable, as bad as it sounds, because Saddam kept the region in check. Once we removed the dictator everything came apart.
And guess what US wants to do now - remove Putin and Lukashenko, what can possibly go wrong. hahaha I guess fools never learn on their mistakes, they only repeat them to show that they are fools.
Middle East was stable when they all had a monarch, respectable Western educated and influential men not these garbage brutalist dictators. Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Saudi, Yemen Oman, Jordan all were progressive and doing very good till the late 70s.
@crypticretro6459 but Iraq invadind Iran was good for US interests, no? I don't understand why you Americans would bother Saddam was 'dealing' with Iran.
@landen_wood Even so, USA has nothing to do with Iraq. It was their war. And you terrorists had no place in that. And who are you to judge whether it was hell? Are you Iraqi, if not, better take your hands off keyboard.
lmao what? just a decade before we had to go there to stop saddam from invading kuwait... and before that iraq invaded iran... Iraq has never been the good guys..
This was a very interesting report. I often wonder how soldiers directly involved in the conflict reconcile their experiences with what we know now...that the war was totally unnecessary.
America did what Russia is currently doing more or less. America's "war on terror" was an act of vile terrorism. This nation's propaganda works way too well.
I carry it with me everyday. We did take Saddam out, he was really bad. Huge areas full of mass graves, people looking for missing family members that Saddam had kidnapped tortured and killed. Videos of Saddams henchmen gangraping wives and kids of political opponets. I did 5 deployments, lost alot of brothers, have brothers changed forever missing legs, arms, paralyzed, had another buddy commit suicide last Friday because of the demons. We carry the weight and memories that those in power of country dont because they made millions off our struggles but didnt have to live through what my Marines did. I did what I thought was needed to keep the people of this country safe.
I was 14 years old when this happened, I remember hearing my dad and uncle talking about it and my dad saying it was a mistake and we shouldn't even be there, I had no real understanding of the world until years later, seeing the devastation of the effects, relatives coming home with a different kind of battle scar, the insurgency, my dad knew it would open up a vacuum only I didn't understand what he was talking about, now I see, 20 years later

Necessary evils are necessary. Just look at Al Shabaab or ISIS. These were the type of terrorists back in 2000-2021 NATO has been dealing with. Russia asked to join NATO in 2003 to help out. The world was at war with Islam and rightfully so. You have no idea how much more attacks were prevented. It was a waste of money and life you’re right! A nuclear device would’ve been far better. Saved us a lot of time because regardless of outcome it had to be done.
I'm Egyptian not Iraqi but I remeber my family watching Al Jazeera almost all day in 2003 and I was watching with them, I can't forget the horrific photoage I was seeing on tv, people with their guts out and some with lost body parts screaming of pain as a 7 years old kid I didn't understand what was going on and I was hearing my family mentioning America while they were watching I didn't even know what was even America but the photoage I saw on tv made me have nightmares and I was so afraid of what I was seeing.

Yeah I was a soldier myself back then, me and my buds used to talk about US's invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan. We imagined various scenarios how to defend our nation if US did this to us then. TBH, we had sympathy for Saddam Hussein and unlike Taliban or Al Qaeda we never found any useful reason to why US would invade Iraq other than for it's oil. 20 years later I think we were correct in our conclusion.
Don't forget Blackwater too. It's crazy how they flipped morality on its head and had us thinking that invading a country is fine, but the residents of that country fighting back is bad.

Man, they had us in the Kuwaiti desert for months waiting to invade, so when the order was given, we were relieved and thought, the faster it begins,the faster it ends. I was wrong. I had to go back another time a couple months after coming home. And It was way worse when I went back.

There's one thing I don't understand. It is generally taught that the Iraqi army was quickly destroyed by the US and its allies. However I see in the comments section several former soldiers talking about colleagues who died, or lost limbs, or were otherwise seriously wounded in the course of several (re)-deployments. Something doesn't add up. Who was putting up the resistence?
There was a power vacuum after the Iraqi army was decimated by the US. Local warlords and militia took power on the basis of stabilizing their region or area. Their allegiances were based on their branch of Islam (Sunni vs. Shia) or tribal affiliation. The fighting from then on was a lot more like a drawn out guerilla war with different factions terrorizing each other or the US forces still in Iraq. The US eventually withdrew unceremoniously and now Iran flexes an enormous amount of influence in Iraq through the militias that succeeded and also won elections.
To everyone who participated in the war of occupying Iraq, the curse of the children and the elderly who were killed by the American army will continue to haunt them until the Day of Resurrection, and history will curse them because they destroyed this country.
I guess the judgment will take many years to finish, because the line is long. Imagine God having to judge every man who killed other men while invading their land, throughout human history?
@@User-jr7vf apparently, judging by most comments, god will judge ONLY those who invaded muslims countries. Even though 90% of the wars of human history happened in europe. But when someone is invading europe ( which is 90% of the wars) then it's fine... Like look at the comments. Russia's invasion is fine, but american's invasion is not fine. What kind of double standard is that? Both is a superpower invading a weaker country in the name of power , land, oil and influence.
The invasion of Iraq was a disaster from the beginning on. Not only that but Iraq is still struggling economically, and with sanctions against Iran, the entire region has been further punished. Both wars in Iraq and now the skirmishes in Syria show how US military involvement is often poorly executed. Iraq depends on its neighbors for economic prosperity, especially since Iran is so much larger and more populous. I believe the new effort by the Arab League will bring peace to the region.
Iraq was a huge mistake. We were lied to. We have nothing to show for it. I thought it was funny when Bush made that gaff about the invasion of Ukriane some months back. If the Bush family would kept quiet about Trump, I might still have some respect for the name.

@Etheu9sby the majority of people know the difference between right and wrong by the age of 10. The majority of people don't develop empathy though. This I why they call I the United Sociopaths of America.
@@chippyjohn1 almost all people have empathy to various degrees. Those who don't are sociopaths and they make up a small number of the population. Also no they didn't know it was wrong. Why you invade is what makes it morally right or wrong most of these guys were told that Saddam was a bad guy who murdered his own people which was true. The lie was he had WMDs. They were lied to. Also the trust in government was much higher back then. stop using the knowledge we have now about it to rationalize the point of they should have known better 20 years ago.
The desperation really started after 2003 for those non-Iraqi people who are wondering how’s life been in Iraq. Not just America lost many soldiers, but also Iraq lost its people and the characteristics that a country should have. Ask almost every single Iraqi nowadays, and they all regret the fact that once they wished Saddam Hussein would fall.
I still remember when they started calling in Speakers. The coalition forces give you peace. Please move away from the street, then start mutual shelling with the Republican Guard, but the most terrifying thing is that I saw an American soldier who got out of the tank burning and running without knowing what to do.

The places were a nightmare for the Americans. They would not approach them because they knew very well that when they entered them, they would be torn apart. I feel like there is something wrong when I try to convince an American person that the invasion of Iraq is a grave mistake and a disgrace to America, and that the Iraqis are victims and the American soldiers were brainwashed. Even the American government admitted that the invasion of Iraq was a mistake. big
2003 was a huge mistake, which we all already know. Instead of war, it should've been negotiations, given that Iran was an enemy to Saddam. Isis never would've had the opportunity to cause chaos in the region and so on. I did two tours there, first wave 03 and 06. I never could understand it, i thought that we were there to help the helpless. But i was in for a rude life changing awakening that scarred me for the rest of my life.
Being in Iraq was by far the worst 18 months of my life!! I remember the smells, sounds, screams, the horrific visions. We didn't know what the fuck we were there for, and so many innocent lives were lost; military and Iraqi citizens. The government wasted billions of dollars! For what? Shit, my unit couldn't even get a proper bulletproof or flak vests. But we were committed to finding and killing the enemy. Little did we know our enemies were on our soil🇺🇸

So because one country government did something u feel is "wrong" in the past under a different president, it makes what putin is doing rn right that's that's stupid ass logic
Its so easy to understand but some how you cant? A leader of the US said that we were going to war. The first part of the war was fine like in this documentary but then they didnt pull us out. Its stupid to hate on the civilians when they disagree with something another country is doing being that the civilians/soldiers are not the ones that chose to go to war. Thats like me hating on russian civilians because their leader is making them go to war. The Iraq invasion is pointless and so is the Ukraine invasion. The US shouldnt have been in Iraq long and Russia shouldnt be in Ukraine.

You live in the US, I assume.
Given the history of the US, and as you point out , the fact that the president's power is not restricted (tough it prides itself as a democracy) ,a sovereign nation must possess the ability to defend itself.
Given the untrustworthiness of US leaders, the expansion of NATO can't be allowed.
If you see a venomous snake that has killed two people in front of you, slowly creep towards you, do you let it bite you first or do you kill it at once?
So Putin is securing a buffer zone between NATO nations and his country, it's the only way he can secure his interests.
As you yourself say, your leaders are whimsical and don't give a damn about international laws .
And the fact that Putin's popularity surged in Russia after the start of the SMO, is proof that Russians support the operation.

Removing Saddam was the biggest mistake we could have possibly made. Prior to that, the Middle East was relatively stable, as bad as it sounds, because Saddam kept the region in check. Once we removed the dictator everything came apart.
And guess what US wants to do now - remove Putin and Lukashenko, what can possibly go wrong. hahaha I guess fools never learn on their mistakes, they only repeat them to show that they are fools.
Middle East was stable when they all had a monarch, respectable Western educated and influential men not these garbage brutalist dictators. Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Saudi, Yemen Oman, Jordan all were progressive and doing very good till the late 70s.

There's one thing I don't understand. It is generally taught that the Iraqi army was quickly destroyed by the US and its allies. However I see in the comments section several former soldiers talking about colleagues who died, or lost limbs, or were otherwise seriously wounded in the course of several (re)-deployments. Something doesn't add up. Who was putting up the resistence?
There was a power vacuum after the Iraqi army was decimated by the US. Local warlords and militia took power on the basis of stabilizing their region or area. Their allegiances were based on their branch of Islam (Sunni vs. Shia) or tribal affiliation. The fighting from then on was a lot more like a drawn out guerilla war with different factions terrorizing each other or the US forces still in Iraq. The US eventually withdrew unceremoniously and now Iran flexes an enormous amount of influence in Iraq through the militias that succeeded and also won elections.
To everyone who participated in the war of occupying Iraq, the curse of the children and the elderly who were killed by the American army will continue to haunt them until the Day of Resurrection, and history will curse them because they destroyed this country.
I guess the judgment will take many years to finish, because the line is long. Imagine God having to judge every man who killed other men while invading their land, throughout human history?

The invasion of Iraq was a disaster from the beginning on. Not only that but Iraq is still struggling economically, and with sanctions against Iran, the entire region has been further punished. Both wars in Iraq and now the skirmishes in Syria show how US military involvement is often poorly executed. Iraq depends on its neighbors for economic prosperity, especially since Iran is so much larger and more populous. I believe the new effort by the Arab League will bring peace to the region.
There were strict economic sanctions on Iraq too, all through the 90s and up until the invasion in 2003.

@@etheu9sby292 For starters, about a million homeless people, literally no healthcare, 78% of people living paycheck to paycheck, more than 700 mass shootings per year, decreasing the dollar's power and increasing inflation every single day, and losing the bully's dominance over the whole world look like a perfect loop to me, we observed that same kind of loop when the USSR collapsed. Believe me, there is something called Karma, and you will get back the exact same amount of harm as you do to others!
@@Phoenix-cp3pn when Biden is gone we will be fine
amazing we ended up losing this war
@@groggerpingas??? "No major military defeats" they literally withdrew from both countries because they couldnt stop the insurgents/Taliban. Afghanistan remains under Taliban control and Iraq is still not fully fixed.
@@groggerpingas It is shameful that your mentality is still alive and we are in the year 2023. Did you say a purification process? Purge what? Rape of minors, displacement of families, torture of innocent people in Abu Ghraib prison, and burning of families. Is this purification? How barbaric you are, shame on you
@@groggerpingas America has lost all of its soldiers in Iraq, whether dead, mentally ill, or disabled. Despite the alliance of more than 30 countries against Iraq and the strongest armies, they will not be able to control the city of Fallujah, Sadr City, the Wadi al-Salam cemetery in Najaf, Dhi Qar, Sniper Juba, and many of all these areas. The places were a nightmare for the Americans. They would not approach them because they knew very well that when they entered them, they would be torn apart. I feel like there is something wrong when I try to convince an American person that the invasion of Iraq is a grave mistake and a disgrace to America, and that the Iraqis are victims and the American soldiers were brainwashed. Even the American government admitted that the invasion of Iraq was a mistake. big
And no one has been charged for war crimes in the US!
That’s because those responsible are still in power.
2003 was a huge mistake, which we all already know. Instead of war, it should've been negotiations, given that Iran was an enemy to Saddam. Isis never would've had the opportunity to cause chaos in the region and so on.
I did two tours there, first wave 03 and 06. I never could understand it, i thought that we were there to help the helpless. But i was in for a rude life changing awakening that scarred me for the rest of my life.
Being in Iraq was by far the worst 18 months of my life!! I remember the smells, sounds, screams, the horrific visions. We didn't know what the fuck we were there for, and so many innocent lives were lost; military and Iraqi citizens. The government wasted billions of dollars! For what? Shit, my unit couldn't even get a proper bulletproof or flak vests. But we were committed to finding and killing the enemy. Little did we know our enemies were on our soil🇺🇸
Are you service connected? You sound like you may have PTSD. I also bought the propaganda and served in the Gulf war 13 years early than you. Now that you have lived the horrors of war, it may take a lifetime time of healing. Which unfortunately, many service men and women never will be given this opportunity. *Respect for all the injured and especially the lost.*
Not an OIF Vet, but a OEF vet here. By far those two campaigns were utterly pointless. But it sure made contractors and the defense industry rich.
is this a bot LOL - no replies and check marks all the propaganda boxes
your enemy wears tiny hats
you fought a false war and now you're complicit in the deaths of 1 million people and destroying an entire country. If i had my way you would be in prison for what you did to Iraq and its people. Shame on you
I was a kid in America when this happened.
20 years later i feel awful for these people
This will remains in your heart forever
Bush
That bastard doesn't have a heart
As Afghan made glorious history by bush as well
If you were 20 then you are 40 years old now! I feel so old :/
being a child in 2003 and growing up with immigrant familys in my apart buildings I really felt like they were some of the nicest people on this earth and very civilized compared to others.
so much respect for you all.
A nation proud of murders and thieves.
I was there with 4th Infantry Division. Young 23 year old soldier😱 lost a couple friends. 😢
Time goes by
You have no shame? Do you?
You mf destroyed Iraq....
These warmongers are still smiling
I still remeber the day, I was 7, in Pakistan, our mothers used to say to pray for Iraqi brothers, n sisters, it was horrible, thanks to Pak armed forces who defened our beloved Pakistan from bush in afghan war.
Pakistan zindabad
Damn and the news just discovered this? There's like plenty of combat footage like this.
Post link then
Right? There probably is all over the internet if you know where to look.
@@40ez10 are you that inept you can't search yourself?
Probably because it's from troops from their area of the country.
I have almost 3years of combat footage from my tank. It's on a hard drive I can't access I just need to take it to a shop and get the data off it. The war was terrible I will never be the same. All I think about now are all the mothers crying for thier lost sons.
When chronicling out involvement, don’t forget the decade of sanctions before the invasion. And the war in 91. And how the US was an ally of saddam through the ‘80s and encouraged his war with Iran.
I feel horrible for the people of Iraq that lost their lives, and for our boys that were lied to. Our governments are evil, we the civilian citizens don't hate each other, it's our government "greed"
Imagine if we just shwacked Saddam and left. The Iraqis would love us today. And probably no ISIS.
When, if you had done this, my little brother would now be by my side and I would be playing with him, but he died at the hands of the Americans.
Or maybe just don't do anything
I'm headed to Iraq in Dec 2024. I still can't rap my head around why we r still there
