The Iraq Liberation Act was passed in 1998. It gave the president authorization to invade Iraq. The Iraq war resolution in 2003 wasn't even legally required. Bush already had the power to invade from day one he took office. Nothing was going to stop America from invading that country. We just needed a spark. 9/11 was the spark.
Who was really behind this push to war is something we may never know the truth. No one in either party wants to investigate it. A 3rd party would have to be elected for it to be fully investigated because the two major parties both have blood on their hands. And they are going to cover this all up.
