The events of September 11th killed 4.5 million people worldwide

America’s wars to confront “terrorism” after the events of September 11, 2001 resulted in the killing of about 4.5 million people “at a minimum,” a number that continues to rise due to the effects of the remaining wars in the affected areas, according to what was confirmed by the American newspaper, The Washington Post.

After the attacks of September 11, 2001, the fight against terrorism became the focus of national security and foreign policy of America. Since then, with double standards and Cold War mentality, the United States has waged a “war on terror” all over the world under the pretext of “national security” and “defending freedom”, dividing countries into different camps, and even toppling other countries’ governments under the guise of fighting terrorism. .

In 2003, despite widespread opposition from the international community, the United States launched war on Iraq on unjustified charges, killing between 180,000 and 200,000 Iraqi civilians, according to the Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs. The coalition forces also used depleted uranium and white phosphorous munitions in Iraq, which put the local environment and people’s health at great risk.

An article published in the American Smithsonian magazine in early 2019 stated that since 2001, “contrary to what most Americans believe, the war on terror is relentless, and has spread to more than 40 percent of the world’s countries.”

According to a report issued in November 2019 within the “Costs of War” project at Brown University, USA, between 4 million people died in the post-9/11 wars.

For reference, Dakota Wood, a professor and prominent expert specializing in defense programs at the American Heritage Foundation, stated that “every 15 years,” the United States enters into a conflict.

Decades later, the world became fully aware of America’s cunning policy, which uses anti-terrorism operations as a tool to maintain its hegemony and promote the so-called democracy and American values ​​abroad, which led to harming many civilians, exacerbating the refugee issue, and flooding the affected areas into Chaos, increasing security threats.
