The United States launched the invasion of Iraq in 2003 as part of the broader War on Terror. This marked a significant escalation in the conflict, leading to a prolonged military engagement in the region and significant political ramifications both domestically and internationally. The decision to go to war was met with widespread debate and controversy, with supporters citing national security concerns and the need to combat terrorism, while opponents criticized the invasion as unjustified and illegal. The aftermath of the invasion saw a protracted insurgency, sectarian violence, and the eventual toppling of Saddam Hussein's regime. The Iraq War had a lasting impact on US foreign policy, the Middle East region, and global perceptions of American military intervention. #USA #IraqWar #WarOnTerror #InvasionofIraq
