Colonisation by the US?
Again, they attacked Iraq for its supposed possession of WMD which, they thought, would be used by the autocratic ruler, Saddam Hussain to set the world in peril. They thought it their solemn duty to relieve the world from the supposed havoc by attacking Iraq. The attack was more or less based on a hypothetical thesis work of a university student and the fantasy of CIA. They did not find WMD rather they toppled the government, arrested Saddam Hussain, killed his two sons and put their chosen man in the government. They are talking about transferring power to the Iraqis but are tactfully avoiding it.
The two cases obviously raised a question in our mind whether the US is trying to set colony in the 21st century to ensure absolute hegemony world-wide. It is invading a country to relieve it of its misery, but the question is who has given it such authority? The Americans thought that they would be a welcome guest in Iraq but their speculations failed them.
