Israel's serious role in the US and UK attack on Iraq in 2003

America's attack on Iraq or occupation of this country in 2003 was carried out on the grounds that Iraq was trying to obtain weapons of mass destruction and had connections with terrorist organizations. It is stated that the Israelis played a major role in this claim.

According to published data, the main reason that encouraged President George Bush to attack Iraq was Israel and the Zionist lobby of AIPAC in the USA. It is considered that one of the reasons for this is Iraq's geopolitical, geoeconomic and demographic power and activism.

According to Danny Ayalon, who was Israel's ambassador to America at the time, Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon told US President George Bush that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction.

The Zionist regime claimed that Israel's then Prime Minister "Benyamin Netanyahu" would attack Iraq with the encouragement of "George Bush" and that this attack would be a good chance, a right action and would save West Asia.

In 2003, the Zionist newspaper Ha'aretz published a report titled "The White Man's Responsibility"; This report stated that the belief in the war against Iraq in the USA was supported by a small neocon group of 25-30 people, almost all of whom were Jews.

In this context, some British newspapers and officials talked about the meeting he held with British Prime Minister Tony Blair in April 2002 in Crawford, Bush's residence, regarding Iraq. According to British sources, the meeting took place behind closed doors and "Israelis" were also on the phone.

On August 16, 2002, 11 days before Bush's Vice President Dick Cheney launched the war campaign with a fiery speech to veterans of foreign wars, the Washington Post reported that "Israel has asked US officials not to delay a military strike on Iraq."

By this point, according to Sharon, strategic coordination between Israel and the United States had reached "unprecedented levels" and Israeli intelligence officials had given Washington several alarming reports about Iraq's weapons of mass destruction programs.

A lie that brought heavy costs to Iraq, which still pays the price today. America and England launched an attack on Iraq on March 19, 2003, with the slogan "Operation Iraqi Freedom".

It is an operation that does not bring freedom to Iraqis and, according to Iraqi officials, caused the death of hundreds of thousands of people and the displacement of millions in this country.

According to a poll published in the Zionist newspaper Ma'ariv in August 2002, 57 percent of Israelis were in favor of carrying out this attack./
