For some strange reason the US led Gulf war in 2003 (16 years ago) keeps cropping up in other posts about far more contemporary policy.

It is a very long time since this war and the short comings of the approach from dodgy dossiers to appealing plans post 'liberation' are well documented and complex.

If you do see any posters who want to talk about the this particuar war can you please direct them to this thread.
