Rather than creating a democratic model for the Middle East, the US invasion of Iraq and the removal of Saddam Hussein was the first domino to fall in a long series of catastrophes for the Middle East and a revived global jihad.
This episode explores:
- Why Iraq was targeted—and why its complex demographics were ignored
- Saddam Hussein’s role as a stabilizing force in a volatile region
- How U.S. policy mistakes radicalized Sunnis and empowered Iran
- The rise of al-Qaeda in Iraq
- How the Iraq War became the incubator for ISIS
