On
March 19th 2003, United States and Coalition forces including Britain
started their war campaign against Iraq. American President
George Bush ordered the bombing after his 48 hour ultimatum to Iraqi President
Saddam Hussein and his sons to give up the power and leave the
country. Since August 2002, US believed that Iraqi were still hiding
their weapons of mass destruction. United Nation diplomatic resolution
could not help to avoid the war. The war last 3 weeks. On April
9th, US president declared the end of coalition war against Saddam
regime. Since May 1, 2003, President Bush declared that major combat operations in
Iraq have ended, but the fight against Iraq invasion still continues...
