On the anniversary of the invasion of Iraq, American newspapers admit falseness of Bush’s allegations and their dangerous repercussions

Twenty years after the American invasion of Iraq, which led to the death of hundreds of thousands of victims and displacement of millions of people, several American newspapers admitted the false allegations made by George Bush administration and its officials to legitimize the invasion before the Americans, and the misinformation campaigns led by the Western media to falsify facts and cover up this crime.

The American Los Angeles Times newspaper was among the newspapers that criticized the invasion of Iraq in an article by Robin Abkaren, in which she referred to the false lies that Bush and officials in his administration at the time told about Iraq’s possession of weapons of mass destruction, saying that this false information encouraged Americans to enter into a conflict that caused bloodshed of  Iraqis and the killing of American soldiers.

The Wall Street Journal, in an article by Gerard Bakker, said: The opinions of some of those who supported the invasion of Iraq 20 years ago were radically reversed, and their description of this crime became the most flawed decision in American foreign policy.

Joey Lieberman wrote an article in the New York Post in which he said: “Bush administration claimed that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction based on false intelligence. The Democrats and Republicans are now disavowing the war that they allowed together two decades ago in an unusual bipartisan consensus that contributes to the broader conclusion that America’s engagement with the world in general and the Middle East in particular is useless and wasteful.
