Explanation:

The 2003 U.S. - invasion of Iraq led to the removal of Saddam Hussein, who was seen as an oppressive dictator by the U.S. The U.S. did not unify Sunnis and Shiites; in fact, sectarian violence increased. The invasion also did not gain international popular support. And no weapons of mass destruction were found in Iraq.

D. The United States removed Iraq's oppressive dictator.
