They certainly opposed it before it took place. Once it occured, they had a pragmatic approach, arguing that their situation was akin to that of Italian communists in late WWII. --Soman (talk) 21:45, 16 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Christopher Hitchens claimed that the CP were in favour of an invasion. He knew them well. You need to provide a source, Soman. Though so do we... --StephanNaro (talk) 21:26, 21 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
