Sahar Al-Sawaf https://www.salsawaffles.com/ and Emma Piper-Burket https://emmapiperburket.com/ bring their movie Did You Forget About Iraq? The movie "calls attention to the fickle economies of the US news cycle to offer personal counter-narratives of Iraq through a collection of experimental nonfiction works."
Iraq was designated by President Bush II as an "Axis of Evil" country. The invasion was justified on the basis that it it "would pay for itself" by seizing the oil reserves. That little misadventure cost $2-3 billion, contributed between 10-30% of the national debt, and lost about half a million lives.
