The Iran-Iraq War was personified by the determination and ambition of
the key leaders, Saddam Hussein and Ayatollah Khomeini, and
characterised by mass casualties, the repression of the civilian
populations and chemical warfare. Fought with lucrative oil money, it
left the belligerents with crippling debts. In this important
reappraisal, Rob Johnson explores the major issues surrounding the
war, offers a fresh analysis of the military aspects and assesses the
far-reaching consequences for the wider world. It is essential reading
for anyone who wishes to understand the ensuing conflicts in the
reqion, including the invasion of Iraq in 2003.
