Iran has never invaded any country and neither have the currently American occupied countries, Somalia, Iraq or Afghanistan invaded any other countries.

The Iran-Iraq War.......... was a war between the armed forces of Iraq and Iran lasting from September 1980 to August 1988.........
The war began when Iraq invaded Iran on 22 September 1980 following a long history of border disputes and demands for the overthrow of Saddam Hussein's regime..........
The war is also noted for Iraq's extensive use of chemical and biological weapons against Iranian troops and civilians as well as Iraqi Kurds.......
Iraq had staged a battle against Iranian forces a year earlier in 1974, resulting in heavy casualties on both sides. Iran attempted to destabilize Iraq, and encouraged Kurdish nationalists to break up the country, in response to Iraq's similar activities in Iran's Khuzestan province.....
Most of the fighting for the rest of the war occurred on Iraqi territory........
Iraq offered a cessation of hostilities in 1982, but Iran's insistence from July 1982 onward to destroy the Iraqi government prolonged the conflict for another six years of static warfare.

The invasion of Kuwait, also known as the Iraq-Kuwait War, was a major conflict between the Republic of Iraq and the State of Kuwait which resulted in the 7 month long Iraqi occupation of Kuwait........
The invasion started on August 2, 1990 and within two days of intense combat, most of the Kuwaiti Armed Forces were either overrun by the Iraqi Republican Guard or escaped to neighboring Saudi Arabia.

yep the first time america went into iraq was because iraq invaded kuwait, or so we were told(i have no reason to doubt it other than seeing people lie on the news channels in recent years and the babies being taken out of incubaters story to get public support being in question as true or false?).
so iraq did invade another country, anyone know about the others though?
didnt afghanistan have a long war with someone in recent history? what was that war about? |
