Based on my experiences I believe most people have forgotten that finding weapons of mass destruction was the original stated reason for the invasion. It seems to me that most people now, in the US at least, think the reason was to bring "freedom" to Iraq. This is largely due to an active rebranding campaign intended to make people forget that the illegal war was based on a blatantly incorrect premise but it only worked because the masses tend to be incredibly dumb.
That's why it's so easy to manipulate and control them. They're just so fucking dumb. And by dumb I mean a combination of genuine stupidity and ignorance born of general disinterest.
