Detailed explanation-1: -Along with Iraq’s alleged development of weapons of mass destructions, another justification for invasion was the purported link between Saddam Hussein’s government and terrorist organizations, in particular al-Qaeda. In that sense, the Bush administration cast the Iraq war as part of the broader War on Terrorism.
Detailed explanation-2: -Since the 2003 invasion of Iraq, several reported finds of chemical weapons were announced, including half a dozen incidents during the invasion itself.
Detailed explanation-3: -Why did the US invade Iraq in 2003? President George W. Bush decided to invade Iraq in order to “undermine Saddam Hussein’s ability to wage war.” The Bush administration claimed that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction, or WMDs (which was later found to be false).
