What Started The War In Iraq?

The Iraq war, begun in 2003, has been justified through several different reasons. One of the primary causes was the fear of Saddam Hussein housing Weapons of Mass Destruction in the country, as the Iraq leader had repeatedly failed to disclose their number and location. In 2002 it was revealed that Tony Blair had agreed to support US President George W. Bush for an invasion of Iraq, with the aim of removing Hussein from power. Despite a UN investigation and refusal to support a US led attack on Iraq, the United States issued an ultimatum on March 17, 2003 to Hussein. When this was not met, a formal declaration of war against Iraq was made on March 20, with the support of Great Britain. Bush has also argued that Hussein refused to conform to the policies on human rights, and terrorist activity following the first Gulf War in the early 1990s. A large amount of criticism has been made of the US for declaring war despite a lack of support from the UN and other countries. The subsequent failure to locate WMDs and the high death tolls and civilian casualties in the region have led others to suggest that the US invaded Iraq as part of a longer plan to consolidate oil power in the Middle East.

Why did the Iraq war even start?
The biggest reason that the USA went to war with Iraq was that we believed Iraq had weapons of mass destruction. We then feared that these weapons would fall into the hands of terrorist. Then the UN (United Nations) demanded that Iraq stop their production of all chemical, biological, nuclear, and all long range missiles. And if they already were to have any that they were to be destroyed immediately. The UN then sent in investigation groups to seek out these weapons of mass destruction. The US Congress stated that this war was only carried out to end the war on terror.

The Iraq war is part  of a larger conflict, a war between the western world (especially Jews) and radical Islamic fundamentalism. It basically started when a group of radical Muslim fundamentalists killed the Israeli Olympic athletes in Munich in 1972. See the following link for details:

Bush idiocy claim against iraq caused the war when the real war was only supposed to be against Afghanistan

Thanks to Saddam Hussein and a group of terrorists crashing into the twin towers, the war was on.

Bombing of twin towers

Tony Blare started the iraq war for britain claming the taliban had weapons of mass destruction and I think it was a complete waste of our time.

And a mean c'mon the time we spent in iraq we could of started a war with another country :D :D:D:D:D

The bombing of the twin towers

Your face haha jk no
it was how the leader was trying to over-power the united states. Presient bush said no so he wanted war he declared war. Being into the war the leader(saddam hussein) did not tell his people that their was war so they sat into the war being attacked the soldier relized that the leader stared to test drugs on his people so they saved as many as can.

When the leader was found shot in the arm but was still alive they hung him.
Hope it can help?    :)
