Invading Iraq: A Study of the U.S. Decision to Go to War in Iraq

Invading Iraq is a compilation of essays taken from the public domain that are concerned with the events leading up to the invasion of Iraq by coalition forces. Particular attention is paid to the diplomatic and ideological efforts made by world leaders after 9/11 to secure regime change in the Middle East. In order to contribute a balanced account of these events, an appendix includes several speeches given by President George W. Bush as well as Congressional legislation which illustrate the United States' case against Saddam Hussein and give important background to this key episode in the War on Terror.
