Explanation:

The War in Iraq was a conflict that began on Thursday, March 20, 2003 and ended on Sunday, December 18, 2011.

The main justification for this operation offered by the President of the United States, George W. Bush, and his allies in the coalition, was the affirmation that Iraq possessed and was developing weapons of mass destruction. US officials argued, in an interested and tendentious way, that Iraq represented an imminent, urgent and immediate threat to the United States, its people and its allies, as well as to its interests. Information services were widely criticized, and the inspectors appointed for that purpose found no evidence that the alleged weapons of mass destruction existed. After the invasion, the Iraq Research Group concluded that Iraq had completed its programs to develop such weapons in 1991 and there were none at the time of the invasion, but that they intended to resume production if the sanctions were lifted. Some US officials claimed that Saddam Hussein and al Qaeda had been cooperating, but there is no evidence of a collaborative relationship, and other reasons for the invasion by officials included concerns over Iraq's financial support for families of Palestinian terrorists, violations of human rights by the Iraqi government, the spread of democracy, or Iraq's oil reserves, although the latter has been denied by some officials.
