The Iraq war should have been avoided because contrary to the claims of the Bush administration there were no weapons of mass destruction only the capability to make nukes, chemical weapons, hydrogen bombs, etc. Another reason why the war should have been avoided was because the lose of life, with around one thousand American and allied troops being killed and a few thousand more injured and an estimated hundred thousand Iraqi citizens being killed with at least seven thousand having been killed by US air strikes, and the last reason is because the war destabilized the middle east even more and the invasion of Iraq made the locals more anti American and when the US pulled out this animosity toward the Americans stayed and helped give terrorist groups like the Taliban, Al Qaeda, and ISIS flourish in Iraq and it could be argued that the terrorist groups are now stronger then back in 2003 when the campaigns began.
