Abstract

The article looks retrospectively at the Iraq War, on its 10th anniversary. The author argues that the war was disastrous and wrong, and criticizes the rationale for it offered by the administration of former U.S. President George W. Bush, to halt Iraq's development of weapons of mass destruction (WMD), including nuclear weapons. He says the idea of using military force rather than diplomacy to achieve nonproliferation is at issue in U.S. President Barack Obama's Iran policy.
