Raphael Israeli

Opis

Through the prism of the three major conflicts during Saddam Hussein s reign the Iran Iraq War, the Gulf War, and the War on Iraq Raphael Israeli exposes the tyranny, deception, and terror synonymous with the Ba ath regime. Focusing on Iraq s demographic populations, including the Shi ites in the south, the Kurdish north, and the Sunni ruling minority, the author documents the difficulties the United States faces internally as rulers of an occupied land, and internationally as a perceived unilateralist aggressor. This work contains revealing insights into Saddam s nuclear, chemical, and biological programs; his sponsorship of terrorist groups; and his collaboration with other countries, including Syria and France. Testimonies of scientists, along with Israeli s intelligent analysis, expose the true scale of weapons of mass destruction proliferation in Ba athist Iraq. The book concludes with an evaluation of who won and who gained from this war, and what the future holds for Iraqis, Muslims, and the West."
