Since the 2011 U.S. withdrawal from Iraq, sectarian divisions have
widened, fuelling a revival of a Sunni Muslim insurgent challenge
to Iraq's stability. Iraq's Sunni Arab Muslims resent Shiite
political domination and perceived discrimination by the government
of Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki. Iraq's Kurds are embroiled in
separate political disputes with the Baghdad government over
territorial, political, and economic issues, particularly their
intent to separately export large volumes of oil produced in the
Kurdish region. Fighting also continues across Syria, pitting
government forces and their foreign allies against a range of
anti-government insurgents, some of whom also are fighting amongst
themselves. The ongoing conflict that began in March 2011 in Syria
has created one of the most pressing humanitarian crises in the
world. Three years later, as of early March 2014, an estimated 9.3
million people inside Syria, nearly half the population, have been
affected by the conflict. This book discusses the political, and
internal conflicts of both Iraq and Syria. It provides information
on the politics, governance, and human rights in Iraq; an overview
of armed conflict in Syria, as well as the United States response;
and an overview of the humanitarian response in Syria as well.
