10-Year Iraq War Anniversary: What We've Learned In the Past Decade

Reflections On a Major Debacle

Preface: Many experts and alternative writers pointed out the false justifications and huge downsides before the Iraq war started. I know for a fact that many letters and phone calls were made to Congress in an attempt to stop the war.

And the protests against the Iraq war were the largest protests in history.

Yet the politicians plowed ahead with the disastrous war and refused to listen to the facts ... or the will of the people.

The Iraq war started 10 years ago. This is a roundup of the facts that have been documented about the debacle in the last decade.
The War Was Planned Long Before 9/11

The American government planned the Iraq war long before 9/11.

Former CIA director George Tenet said that the White House wanted to invade Iraq long before 9/11, and inserted “crap” in its justifications for invading Iraq.

Former Treasury Secretary Paul O’Neill – who sat on the National Security Council – also says that Bush planned the Iraq war before 9/11.

Top British officials say that the U.S. discussed Iraq regime change even before Bush took office.

In 2000, Cheney said a Bush administration might “have to take military action to forcibly remove Saddam from power.” And see this and this.

Indeed, neoconservatives planned regime change in Iraq – and throughout the Middle East and North Africa – 20 years ago.

Who's wearing the "tin-foil hats" now? How many top officials need to come out and say the Iraqi "conflict" was a pretense and a sham before you start considering the possibility that it WAS? How many of our kids will need to come home without arms, legs, genitals, eyes, and hands, or in a box, before you start THINKING FOR YOURSELF instead of chanting "USA! USA! USA!" every time they name the latest boogeyman? Notice that none of THEIR kids ever come home in a box? In pieces? Just that should wake your dumb ass up....probably not, though..

I believe the "war on terror" was created with the same tactics used by a very inteliigent man named Adolf Hitler. He attacked his own people, blamed it on Poland, which created hatred and a desire to get revenge by its citizens. This led to the German invasion of Poland. The U.S. planned 9/11 as an excuse to invade the middle east, getting support from citizens nationwide.

War was imminent before that happened and had been implemented but stopped in mid-stride by Hitler for another negotiation offer.

He did utilize a false flag operation as you suggest.

And shortly after Germany's invasion of Poland from the north, west and south, the U.S.S.R. joined Germany attacking Poland from the east.
