American President George W Bush launches invasion of Iraq, based on complete lies and deceit to the nation, the UN and the world. Democrats and Republicans, including the current President, give W the authorization to invade the country. Considered a genocidal warcriminal by vast majority of Middle-East and normal people.
American Vice President Dick Cheney is thought to have masterminded the invasion. An ex-Haliburton Oil Company chief and all around disgusting wretched human. Haliburton mysteriously obtained the oil contracts in Iraq.
Donald Rumsfeld, Secretary of Defense is considered to be the architect of the invasion plan to topple Saddam Hussein, and install a friendly US government. He oversaw banned, extreme torture on Iraqis, indefinite detention, unfathomable suffering and bloodshed.
National Security Adviser/Secretary of State Condolleeza Rice was instrumental in peddling administation lies to the public, about Weapons of Mass Destruction. Supporter of Torture Program and whitewasher of government lies and horrors.
Paul Wolfowitz, the Deputy Secretary, worked as Rumsfeld's minion and was the key in pushing false WMD claims.
Where are these terrorist warlords, you may ask? Behind bars?
No, they lived happily ever after in their yachts, ranches and mansions occasionally showing up in public to rehabilitate their image, with the eager help of Democrats and the media. Rumsfeld died, escaping justice.
Some of the heinous events that happened in this timeline include Abu Ghraib Prison Scandal, Torture Memos, White Phosphorous attacks on Fallujah, and many, many, many more. One in particular sticks out - The Haditha Massacre:
Not too long after that, another atrocity was committed by Americans:The Marine Corps initially reports that Marines opened fire on insurgents after a roadside bomb killed 15 Iraqi civilians and a Marine in Haditha, 140 miles northwest of Baghdad. But Iraqi accounts differ, and the military's own investigation suggests that the Marines methodically killed 24 men, women and children after a roadside bomb that fatally wounded a member of their unit.
The Mahmudiyah rape and killings were war crimes involving the gang-rape and murder of 14-year-old Iraqi girl Abeer Qassim Hamza al-Janabi and the murder of her family by United States Army soldiers on March 12, 2006. It occurred in the family's house to the southwest of Yusufiyah, a village to the west of the town of Al-Mahmudiyah, Iraq. Other members of al-Janabi's family murdered by American soldiers included her 34-year-old mother Fakhriyah Taha Muhasen, 45-year-old father Qassim Hamza Raheem, and 6-year-old sister Hadeel Qassim Hamza al-Janabi.[1] The two remaining survivors of the family, 9-year-old brother Ahmed and 11-year-old brother Mohammed, were at school during the massacre and orphaned by the event.
Atrocity after atrocity, Iraq was "liberated", only to fall again when ISIS emerged. That's around when the US forces left Iraq and handed the country over to Iraqis. But that is a different topic.
Here's a recap of how consent was manufactured for the invasion:
