Lest We Forget...
"Happy" Anniversary; March 20, 20 years on:
The 9-11 attacks led to George W. Bush bombing Afghanistan in October 2001, where the Taliban regime was supportive of al-Qaeda.
The Taliban was toppled in a month, and bin Laden fled.
Bush then sent U.S. troops to Iraq in March 2003, purportedly to destroy Iraqi weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and end the dictatorial rule of Saddam Hussein.
There was little if any sign of a connection between al-Qaeda and Iraq, and no WMD were ever found.
