"On March 20, 2003, the United States and a group of allies invaded Iraq, without the authorization of the United Nations Security Council and against the overwhelming majority of world public opinion [...] Though US President George W. Bush delivered his “mission accomplished” speech on May 2, 2003, the conflict has continued for more than three and a half years. Hundreds of thousands of people are now dead or injured, over than three million are displaced, several of Iraq’s cities lie in ruins, and hundreds of billions of dollars have been spent on a failed military campaign.
This report considers the conflict in detail, with special emphasis on the US Coalition’s responsibilities under international law. It also considers political and economic issues in Iraq and argues for urgent change, including a speedy withdrawal of Coalition forces."
