The US and Ukraine have finalized a ‘temporary ceasefire deal’ during the Jeddah talks, which were meant to be a kind of conciliatory round two chance for Ukraine to amend for Zelensky’s faux pas.

Cowardly bombing a country is not 'fighting a war'
Even then, like the ukranians you mostly used a proxy, the Kurds and other local factions to do the fighting for you.
And in good american tradition you threw them under the bus later.

I think you need to brush up on your history. And who is "you"? I'm not even American my friend.

First of all how old were you when it happened?
I bet you got the sanitised, revisionist version, after some years plenty believed it had to do with WMD's and never heard of the US warcrimes. (Same thing happened after decades of Hollywood fantasy movie propaganda when people in EU began to believe the US won the war and not the never mentioned Soviets)
I'm sure I know more about it or history in general you since we have better education than you Canadians and.
I'm sure with the many many SS Galicia warcriminals that moved there, and their offspring like Freeland whitewashing them I think you probably don't know enough about your own country.

No, it was very clear it was to get Iraq out of Kuwait after it invaded. Iraq wanted to gain more regional dominance and add Kuwait's oil reserves to it's own economy after the costly Iran-Iraq war.

you Canadians

Also not Canadian, the world is a big place

Ask people now about Iraq and see if they mention Kuwait or WMD's.
And where do they miseducate people like that?
Is it a secret or should I guess?
Another one of the terrible 5 eyes countries?
then 1 UK AUS.
Or one of the terrible baltics or miserable Poland.
But your English is good and know how to spell (so I should've known you weren't american)

You're not making a lot of sense. So I see no point in talking any further.
