Iraq War 2003 (ePub)

The Iraq War is the Third Gulf War that was initiated by the
military invasion of Iraq by the US Troops in March 2003.
The invasion was also the result of the seizure of Iraq and its
major cities by the allies of the United States to bring an
conclusion to the Baath Party of Saddam Hussein who was a
well-known leader of the Baath party and the 5
th President of
Iraq. The chief cause of the Iraq War could be related to the
GWOT (Global War on Terrorism) which was declared by the
United States President George W. Bush in response to the
terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center on 11
th September
2001.
The events of the Iraq War were both brutal and severe on
both the sides including the Iraqi army and the common man
as well as on the US Army and its allies. It resulted in the
defeat of the Iraqi Army and the exposure and the execution
of the Baath party leader Saddam Hussein. The war also
resulted in the mass casualty of thousands of army men along
with the common men, especially children among the dead and
the severely wounded. In addition to the loss of life, the war
also resulted in heavy economic losses in terms of several US
Million dollars at the cost of heavy armaments and missiles.
The paper discusses the covert as well as the overt reasons
and causes of the Iraq War or the Third Gulf War in addition
to the different aims and objectives of the United States and its
allies. The paper also discusses the course of the Iraq War and
the consequences which had to be faced both on the face of
Iraq and the United States as well. This paper would also shed
light on the dire consequences of the aftermath of the Iraq
War on all the aspects of the Iraq Government and also on
the United States government including the economic, political,
military, social and on humanitarian levels. At last, the true
intentions of the main reasons of the Iraq War have been
speculated and interpreted in a broader sense.
