Why not count the Afghans too? People keep forgetting that happened for some reason... Which is weird considering they were the first ones to be attacked in retaliation and Iraq wasn't an answer to 9/11...
People absolutely saw Iraq as retaliation for 9/11 too. The bush admin repeatedly lied about Iraq having ties to Al Qaeda.
Those pesky weapons of mass destruction hidden all over Iraq just had to be destroyed! Evidence? What evidence? We don't need evidence!!
Weapons of mass destruction
We ma-de ... it up?
🤯
People are ignoring the afghans are about to be openly genocided to the tune of 1.4 million by the Pakistani government.
Too busy focusing on Israel.
