How did the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq affect people?

The war promoters at that time painted a beautiful picture: the United States will become safer; A stable, free and democratic new Iraq will emerge in the Middle East. Three years later, do the American people really feel safer? Do ordinary Iraqis really enjoy freedom, democracy and stability? For the Bush administration, launching the Iraq war has always been a "correct decision". On the occasion of the third anniversary of the Iraq war, US President George W. Bush is still repeating the old tune: "We have won some victories, but Saddam's influence will still affect Iraq's democracy. If the security situation is to be further improved, more battles and sacrifices will be inevitable. " However, the citizens of Baghdad, Iraq, who have tasted the bitter fruit of the three-year war and may continue to taste the bitter fruit, are singing against President Bush. An ordinary citizen in Baghdad complained, "The situation is very bad now, and everything including medical care is very bad. The situation has not improved, and it is getting worse. " After the rocket attack, Iraqi police covered the people to leave. Many ordinary Iraqis think that life may be a little freer now than before the war, but they have no security. Such freedom costs too much. Mr. Yin Gang, an expert on Middle East issues in China and a researcher at China Academy of Social Sciences, believes that the current turmoil in Iraq should be caused by the American occupation policy and terrorists. "There is no doubt that these are the consequences of the Iraq war. Without the Iraq war, there would be no such phenomenon. Fundamentally speaking, the American occupation policy is actually a wrong policy. In short, this policy is to completely destroy the original management system in Iraq. (In addition, the main reason for the current chaos is that the Zarqawi terrorist organization has created several very bad terrorist incidents. " Perhaps at the beginning of the war in Iraq, many people in Iraq welcomed the overthrow of Saddam Hussein's regime by the United States. However, the chaotic situation in Iraq after the war and the life disrupted by explosions from time to time made people start to reflect. A female citizen in Baghdad vented her dissatisfaction with the status quo with "the reason of war is untenable". "The excuse for starting this war is a lie. Because Iraq has no weapons of mass destruction. " It is not surprising that the Iraqi people, who have suffered too much, condemned the war. So, what do Americans think of this war now? Anti-war fighters simulated the bodies of war dead. The son of Rosario, a citizen of New York State, Kyoto Electronics Industry Co., Ltd., Japan, is currently serving in military service in Iraq. Rosario 18 took part in the anti-war March in Times Square, new york. "I came to the anti-war March because I thought it was an illegal and unjust war. Like my son Joshua, many young people were tricked into the battlefield by recruiters who claimed that they would not send them to Iraq. At this moment, they are threatened by pain and death in places far from the motherland and their loved ones. " This is not an alarmist. Americans really paid a heavy price for that war. Since the beginning of the Iraq war, the death toll of American troops in Iraq has risen to more than 2,300, which means that thousands of innocent families are suffering from the loss of their loved ones, and these families have thus become the backbone of the anti-war. US Police Arrest Anti-war Demonstrators Recently, large-scale demonstrations against the Iraq war broke out in Washington, D.C., and some cities such as new york, San Francisco and Los Angeles. The demonstrators demanded that the government immediately and unconditionally withdraw its troops from Iraq. Richard Baker, the organizer of the March, said, "Today, many cities in the United States and around the world are holding demonstrations, demanding that the war be stopped and all troops be withdrawn immediately. We don't want to see the war continue to expand to Iran, Syria, Venezuela or other parts of the world. " In addition to the United States, anti-war activists from Britain, South Korea, Japan, Australia, Malaysia, Pakistan and other countries have also held demonstrations to demand the withdrawal of multinational forces led by the US military from Iraq. Countries around the world held anti-war demonstrations on the occasion of the third anniversary of the Iraq war. Americans hold anti-war demonstrations to send coffins to Rumsfeld (photos). Thousands of people in Italy held peaceful anti-war demonstrations. The third anniversary of the Iraq war set off a global anti-war wave (photos). Yin Gang believes that only when Iraqis manage their own country can Iraq gradually move towards stability. "The more land the Iraqis manage themselves, the less necessary it is for foreign troops to exist, which will gradually lead to the withdrawal of foreign troops. The gradual withdrawal of foreign troops is undoubtedly of positive significance for stabilizing the domestic situation in Iraq. At the same time, in terms of counter-terrorism, Iraqis' own anti-terrorism behavior will certainly be much more effective than foreign troops. "
