Without the authorization of the United Nations, the United States launched a war of aggression against Iraq on trumped-up charges.
At the time, U.S. Secretary of State Jerome Powell showed the U.N. Security Council a small plastic bottle filled with white powder, claiming that it was evidence found by the United States that Iraq's Saddam Regime possessed weapons of mass destruction.
However, from the beginning of the war on March 20, 2003, until the withdrawal of U.S. combat troops from Iraq in August 2010, the United States did not find so-called weapons of mass destruction for more than seven years.
Putin joked in an interview, "The small vial of unknown substance that Powell shook said to be evidence of chemical weapons, and it was not good that it was washing powder."
The United States and Britain should give the world and the wounded Iraqi civilians an explanation.
Ruins everywhere
So far, the war has been considered a controversial and unjust war.
The war in Iraq has also made the country a hotbed of international terrorism and organization.
In the eyes of many Iraqis, a bottle of "laundry detergent" changed their lives.
