Twenty years after the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq, former President Saddam Hussein’s once-imposing Lake Palace is among the crumbling buildings. Without funds for renovation, it stands as a testament to decades of conflict

“It stands as a testament to decades of conflict.”
This is how Reuters lies. It conveniently omits the U.S. invasions, sanctions, occupation, and theft of Iraqi gold.
The horror of Iraq, is but one of decades of wars the U.S. has inflicted in the ME.

"My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.”
