911 did we overreact ?

On September 11th many American lives were lost.  The world as we know changed on from that day on especially for America.  The tragic attack on innocent lives enraged the nation and its people. As a result of this attack the Bush administration announced a war on terrorism. The United States shortly after 911 attacked the nation of Afghanistan and over through the Islamist militant terrorist group that ruled the nation. The operation was called “Operation Enduring Freedom”. Two years later the US started a new war with Iraq and the Saddam Hussein Regime.  Millions of American’s and others across the world protested against the war. The United States and Britten paid no mine and saw Saddam Hussein as dangerous threat.  So in March of 2003, U.S.-led forces invaded Iraq and deposed the defiant leader. Saddam escaped capture, but after a nine-month manhunt, he was caught and hung by his neck. As a result the Iraq’s people who have been divided by many categories like tribe and religion have been unable to restore peace. With no iron fist ruling the nation the people of Iraq have founded it hard to trust each other and the new US led regime. The whole world was affected by the United States actions after 9/11.  

A body of lies fed to the American people for a personal objective to be completed. This is our government today. US government took advantage of the public’s reaction to 9/11. We shifted the world against us politically.  Hatred for the United States and western nations grew in the Middle East and predominantly Muslim nation. The Iraq war was unjust as you can see in the videos above our government has falsified the reason for war. Dictatorship is better than a civil war. Thousands of Americans and civilians have died in Iraq. The nation of Iraq has yet still not found peace. We can’t spend trillions on destroying nations and building them back up. We must look out for America’s interest these wars did benefits the United States financially, it did not reboot the economy. We spent over 3 trillion dollars on Iraq and Afghanistan while middle class families were becoming homeless. The benefits of these wars are uncertain and unclear. As the world’s super power we should be concerned with developing our nation and moving in the interest our people.
