George W. Bush: President George W. Bush started making the case for an infiltration of Iraq in 2002."Iraq continues to flaunt its hostility toward America and to support terror," he said, adding that “states like these, and their terrorist allies, constitute an axis of evil, arming to threaten the peace of the world. By seeking weapons of mass destruction, these regimes pose a grave and growing danger.” Bush launched the war on March 19, 2003, noting in a televised address that “helping Iraqis…

a Middle-East terrorist group, and Saddam Hussein, the dictator of Iraq (Heinrich). On September 1, 2001, Al-Qaeda terrorists crashed two planes into the World Trade Center, causing fear to spread throughout America’s public (911memorial.org). It was from this fear that investigations of Hussein’s supposed support of Al-Qaeda occurred, uncovering overwhelming evidence that no such association existed. Even if Bush had sufficient evidence to link Hussein with Al-Qaeda, proposing war would not…

second conflict lasted until December 2011 with the withdrawal of American troops. Before this war began, there were some signals that something was happening. In Iraq, gradually, a dangerous man was gaining acceptance and power. This man, Saddam Hussein, was suppressing the Kurds, an Iraqi minority, that was revolting against him and was fighting for its freedom and independence. The United Nations (UN) thanks to some inspections, discovered that Iraq was producing lethal weapons of all kinds:…

Coming into International Security Threats? I did not know what to expect. Originally I decided to take the class because I figured it would be beneficial to me. Since I am going into the military I wanted to gain knowledge about the threats our nation is facing. Thinking this class would help me make a more rounded officer I hastily clicked to register for the class. My first day of the class threw me for a loop. Instead of talking about how to solve the issue of international security…

In a broadcasted speech from Bush, he states that, “Iraq is a part of the war on terror. It’s a country that trains terrorists. It’s a country that could arm terrorists. Saddam Hussein and his weapons are a direct threat to this country.” He found a way to tricked the US citiziens into believing that Iraq was linked to 911 and that their country has weapon of mass distruction. “In the USA Today” article, it was stated that the…

Through various speeches, covered by many media outlets, Bush convinced the public that we needed to invade Iraq and find Saddam Hussein so we could find these weapons and keep them put of Iraqi hands. There have various reports on whether and WMD were ever found but a large consensus is that Bush used the media to rile up the public into supporting his hunt for Saddam Hussein. As can be seen, the media has a large impact on media and politics. Politicians not only use the media to influence…

During the Second World War, Germany was ruled and run by Adolf Hitler a fascist dictator. Hitler is one of, if not the most recognisable dictator of his time. However decades after the second world war dictatorial government has become more common and more of a concern to democratic governments. A dictatorship is a form of government when an individual (dictator) has all the power over the whole country. The dictator makes the law and decisions for the whole country without the citizen’s…

Muslims, and Catholics against each other in a brutal combat (Avalos 2005). Also, thousands of monks were being persecuted in Burma during that time. Violence in religion even excels conflicts between various ethnicities, which also happen within the same ethnicity. The irony about this is that not one religion that ever existed in the past or present, preaches violence to solve any problems that exist. The reason why religion causes war is not the fact that religion teaches the people to do…

rogue, lambasting many aspects of the Iraq war, including his own preparation of Powell 's presentation to the United Nations. But in a world where the invasion hadn’t happened? “I think we would have a rough balance of power,” he answered. “Saddam Hussein would perhaps be restarting his weapons of mass destruction program – not to attack the United States, but to defend himself. We could have monitored that process and kept an eye on it. And as long as he continued to balance Iran and keep a…

After the war that occurred in Iraq and the dictatorship that came along with it by Suddam Hussein, the United States government conducted themselves as the primary source of repairing the damage and rebuilding Iraq. During that time, the United States government was held by the Bush administration. After all the damage was so called “fixed”, the Iraq government was still left in shambles; civilians, American troops, and political leaders were still being murdered. According to Larry Diamond…
