General Powell’s claims of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq proved false.
WASHINGTON – Another veteran of the Iraq and Afghan wars and former US Secretary of State General (retd) Colin Powell has died to serve as Secretary of State in the Afghan and Iraq wars. Colin Powell has died at the age of 84 after contracting code-19. He was preceded in death by former US Secretary of Defense Donald Mansfield, who played a key role in the Iraq and Afghan wars.
The family of Colin Powell, the first black secretary of state in US history, has confirmed that he died.
We lost our best husband, father, grandfather, and a great American said a statement issued by his family due to complications caused by the 19-year-old. Former U.S. Army four-star general Colin Powell and former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff have served as four U.S. presidents and were considered a key asset in the political landscape and chambers of power.
Colin Powell, who was born in Jamaica, was named Secretary of State by US President George W. Bush in 2000, saying that General Powell was a political hero, an unparalleled American, and a great example to the United States. The way in which Colin Powell has demonstrated such qualities as high reputation, great respect for democracy, and sense of duty as a soldier will make him a great representative of all the people of this country.
However, the situation became extremely tense after the war for the Secretary of State, who, during his February 2003 speech to the United Nations, accused Iraq of possessing weapons of mass destruction and paving the way for war. Claims of presence were proved false. In a 2005 interview, Colin Powell lamented that this was a stain and would remain part of my record. “It’s very painful.

General (retd) Colin Powell and Donald Rumsfeld, who served as Secretary of State and Secretary of Defense under former US President George W. Bush, are considered the creators of the most important Iraq war in recent US history. The overthrow of President Saddam Hussein’s government has sparked a protracted war, but the United States has failed to maintain law and order and Iraq is still in turmoil.
In addition to other members of the Bush administration, Rumsfeld had a reputation for harsh treatment of some military personnel and members of Congress, including Secretary of State Colin Powell. . During his time in the Abu Ghraib prison outside Baghdad, Ramzfield twice asked for his resignation in 2004 after pictures surfaced of him being mistreated by US officials, which was rejected by President Bush. The inhumane treatment of detainees at the infamous Guantanamo Bay prison also made headlines in the global media.
