Although this is an old interview conducted several years ago, its insights and perspectives remain highly relevant to the current wars, offering a valuable historical perspective that sheds light on the ongoing geopolitical dynamics.

In a revealing account, General Wesley Clark in an interview with Amy Goodman (March 02, 2007), recounts a pivotal moment post-9/11. When he discovered plans for military intervention in Iraq. During his meeting with high-ranking officials. He learned that the decision to go to war had been made without clear justification or intelligence linking Saddam Hussein to al-Qaeda.

A year later, he was shown a classified memo detailing a broader strategy. That was attacking seven countries in five years, including Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and Iran. The conversation sheds light on the lack of specific reasons for military actions. Thus, raising concerns about a predetermined agenda that unfolded in the volatile aftermath of the 9/11 attacks.
