Could the US air-bomb a sovereign nation without the government approval? Amid the outcry of defiance, the US bombed Iraq, claiming the Iraqi people there tied up with Iran. Worse yet, the attack is claimed as retaliation against the US contractor killed by a rocket attack.
The people in Iraq protested against the US and devastated the US embassy.
While the Iraq war started/ended without clear objectives, the US presence in Iraq has been criticized for provocative nature of the military uniform dictating the politics in Iraq. Now by the air-bombing, it is at full display.
The US reaction? More troops. More war expenses and enhanced hostility around the globe. Boasting of prompt military response, the heightened tension threatened the US and allies.
Is this wise?
