For most Americans, the war against Iraq lingers in memory as a vast morality play, a drama offering ready-made heroes and villians: a glowering dictator in military uniform, hapless Kuwaiti refugees with tales of persecution, plucky pilots with high-tech wizardry, and a defiant American president, ringing Churchillian as he drew a line in the sand. But this characterization of the war is greatly oversimplified, a one-dimensional portrait, lacking in context and nuance. in War in the Gulf, 1990-91, Majid Khadduri and Demund Ghareeb paints a very different picture- one that brings historical depth to the portrait, and displays the actions of many of the participants in a new and revealing light.
