The fallout from the Iraq War in 2003 has been widespread. The US
finds itself under siege in Iraq; the Iraqi State is ruled by
chaos, corruption and terrorism; and the hunt for weapons of mass
destruction has been relentlessly debated in the media. Through the
prism of the three major conflicts during Saddam's reign: The
Iran-Iraq War, the Gulf War (1991) and the climax to Middle East
tensions, the War on Iraq (2003); Raphael Israeli exposes the
tyranny, deception and terror synonymous with the Ba'ath regime.
Focusing on Iraq's demographic populations -- the Shi'ites in the
south, the Kurdish north, and the Sunni ruling minority -- the
author documents the difficulties America faces internally as
rulers of an occupied land, and internationally as a perceived
unilateralist aggressor. The Impact of the Iraq War 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 WMD proliferation in Ba'athist
Iraq. The term Babylonian intrigue' is used to describe the
confusion, chaos and misinterpretation of language that has taken
hold in the aftermath of the war. The author provides a penetrating
analysis of the social, political, economic, and strategic ruptures
the Iraq War has caused in inter-Arab relations and the Islamic
world. 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.
