What was the primary goal of us forces in iraq in 2003? to assassinate iraqi leader saddam hussein to gain intelligence crucial to the deployment of naval and air support to rid the nation of weapons of mass destruction to establish us control over the country

The primary goal of US forces in Iraq in 2003 was to rid the nation of weapons of mass destruction.

The invasion of Iraq in 2003 was part of the first stage of the Iraq War, an armed conflict that led to the overthrow of Hussein's government. Not only U.S. troops took part in the invasion but also forces from the United Kingdom, Poland and Australia participated in this mission. Moreover, George W. Bush, who was the U.S. president in that moment, declared that the primary goal of the invasion of Iraq was to disarm the nation of dangerous weapons and to finally free the Iraqi people.

At this hour, American and coalition forces are in the early stages of military operations to disarm Iraq, to free its people and to defend the world from grave danger.

On my orders, coalition forces have begun striking selected targets of military importance to undermine Saddam Hussein's ability to wage war. These are opening stages of what will be a broad and concerted campaign.

More than 35 countries are giving crucial support from the use of naval and air bases to help with intelligence and logistics to deployment of combat units. . . .

We have no ambition in Iraq except to remove a threat and restore control of that country to its own people. . . .

Our nation enters this conflict reluctantly, yet our purpose is sure. The people of the United States and our friends and allies will not live at the mercy of an outlaw regime that threatens the peace with weapons of mass murder.
