Dear MEL
Topic Readers,
Chilcot
report: US 'pushed UK into Iraq War too early', says ex-ambassador
The Iraq
Inquiry was announced on 15 June 2009 by then Prime Minister Gordon Brown to
investigate the nation's role and involvement during and after the Iraq War between
2001 and 2009. The investigation was headed by Sir John Chilcot and took seven
years to complete, nearly as long as the investigated period, and the final
report was announced on 6 July 2016.
Is it worth
taking several years to review an action taken over a decade ago? Absolutely
for sure to the British who love learning from history.
As for Americans,
who initiated the action and campaign and left Iraq still in chaos, they say
they are too busy dealing with the present problems in the country.
Enjoy
reading and thinking how valuable it is to learn from mistakes.
