Iraq
Hey Oldfags!
Did people really believe that Iraq/Saddam Hussein had some kind of tangential involvement in 9/11? I've been told this was the case but I can't quite believe it.
Also, Why did America and her allies jump so quickly from Afghanistan to Iraq? Shouldn't they have completed their mission in Afghanistan (be it regime change or nation building or whatever they were trying to do) before biting off more than they could chew with Iraq? (I know pic relate and co. were lobbying the American government HARD to attack Iraq two weeks after 9/11)
To what extent were the invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan influenced by "The End of History" by Francis Fukuyama (member of the "project for the new American century" Neocon think tank). Fukuyama believed Western liberal-democratic capitalism had won the Cold War and that all nations would naturally adopt liberal democracy once authoritarian regimes were removed and free elections held. But isn't that a bit naive and dismissive of post-Cold War developments like Islamofascism and China's authoritarian success? Did people really take this shit seriously?
It feels like such a different time
