Are you still saying it was single handedly responsible? A simple yes or no would suffice.
No.
Thanks.
However in that case it would be difficult to infer that:
America is the reason all of Europe isn’t forcibly speaking German or Russian at this point.
Anyway….
The US and UK won the war and are taking all the casualties while France and Russia would have left Saddam in power. You think its odd that they didn’t get reconstruction contracts? BTW, guess which two countries were owed billions by Iraq before the war? Try France and Russia. Guess which two counties supplied almost all the arms that Iraq had? Try France and Russia.
While blaming Russia and France for all the ills, you seem to forget how the US propped up Saddam (wierdly described by the american media as secular and liberal at the time) against the Mullah led Iran – who btw themselves came to power after toppling the regime of yet another dictator, the Shah of Iran :).
Its like the pot calling the kettle black, except that the pot seems to make a lot more noise.
That said, I dont begrudge the US helping itself to the war booty(read: reconstruction projects paid for in oil) in Iraq. The brits might be a liitle pissed after they find out they have been royally short-changed in the whole thing. But none of anyone elses business i guess.
