USA ENTERED IRAQ IN 2003

The US sprinkled the seeds of hostility to Iraq in 2003 Former US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Agent John Nixon, who first questioned Iraq's ousted leader Saddam Hussein, said after more than two months of interrogation they concluded that there were no chemical weapons in this country. The retired agent said that when Saddam Hussein was captured, the American administration did not know what to do with the ousted leader, and he said that they only wanted them to talk to him for weeks and he had long talks with Saddam on the history of Iraq and the Middle East. Noting that they talked for a long time about weapons of mass destruction, which everyone was curious about, Nixon continued as follows: "As a result of the questioning that lasted for two months and each time the issue came to weapons of mass destruction, I came to the same conclusion as Saddam; There were no chemical weapons in Iraq. There was no weapons program or nuclear program. At the same time, Saddam had no such plans in the future. "
