Abstract
A critical analysis of the available accounts given about the
United Sates (US) and United Kingdom (UK) – Iraq war (This
was actually not a war but deliberate invasion) reveals a very
cleverly calculated and planned strategy. The US and UK
knew well in advance that Saddam Hussein had no weapons
of mass destruction (WMD) (If Saddam Hussein had WMD
then US and UK might have given him during Iran-Iraq war
which they deliberately refused to tell the world. This was a
possible revelation for their insistence that Saddam Hussein
had WMD). The unilateral decision taken by US and UK to
wage this brutal and senseless war against Iraq killing millions
of innocent Iraqis, destroying built infrastructure and plunging
the country into perpetual absolute chaos is worth an account.
In this empirical literature review research paper an analysis of
Iraq invasion is provided to inform the world about the premeditated intentions of US and UK to unilaterally wage war on
Iraq despite UN and worldwide protests.
Key words: Consistency, invasion, foreign policy, aggression, unilateral
decision, strategy, defence of democracy, promotion of democracy fight
against terrorism, infrastructure destruction
