It was announced that Canada would join a UN-approved NATO coalition attack in Afghanistan (in order to support the United States). The purpose of this was to find and neutralize al-Qaeda which was a global militant Islamist organization. In addition, the main goal was to track and hunt down Osama Bin Laden, the leader of al-Qaeda, since the Taliban government refused to reveal Bin Laden’s hiding place. The province that Canada was responsible for was Kandahar, which was presumably the most dangerous province in Afghanistan.…

    There is not sufficient democracy in Iraq, the middle east really isn 't anymore evolved now than it was when we first sent troops in, and our relationship with Iraq is still in shambles. In conclusion, going to war with Iraq was done with the intentions to help make this increasingly oppressive state, free from the chains and whips that it is founded from. We as Americans wanted to help spread democracy, so that the Iraq could finally have civil liberties, and even a thriving economy. That goal sadly was not accomplished, because of the lack of cultural understanding, violence, and the sheer number of people that we were up against.…

    George W. Bush faced a tough decision after the attacks on September 11, 2001, whether to stand by after the attacks or to go try and get the individuals who were part of planning the attack. Going into Afghanistan and later Iraq played a large part in the foreign policy of the George W. Bush presidency. America was able to achieve success early on in Afghanistan as they were able to take over their government as they were able to topple the Taliban and put in place a democratic government.

    In rare circumstances, the United States has justification to engage in unilateral military action overseas if the nation's security is directly threatened by the country being militarily aggressed. However, unilateral action is only necessary when it is very direct and does not become excessive in regards to the number of countries and people assailed, as well as the intensity of the military measures being taken. For example, Operation Iraqi Freedom, which began March of 2003, was a not a justified unilateral attack because the U.S. had already defeated the Taliban in Afghanistan (which had harbored those responsible for the 9/11 attacks, such as al-Qaeda) during the earlier Operation Enduring Freedom, and Iraq was not a direct threat to…
