Answer:
The correct option is A. Saddam Hussein escaped from the country.
Explanation:
- U.S. soldiers invaded Iraq in March 2003 with the goal of destroying the country's WMD and overthrowing Saddam Hussein's autocratic authority.
- The public's support for the war declined as the WMD intelligence proved to be false and a violent insurgency emerged. Democratic elections were conducted, and Saddam was apprehended, prosecuted, and executed.
- Over 4,700 members of the armed forces of the United States and its allies have died since then, while over 100,000 Iraqi civilians have also been slain.
- The volatile political environment in Iraq continues to raise issues.
The Iraqi Army is swiftly overpowered by U.S., British, and other coalition forces, despite resistance by Saddam Hussein's supporters, who will eventually form the backbone of an insurgency after the war.
