For those who want to see the story from the Iraqi Point of View. Honestly, only by the fall of the regime that we could take a look at the most reversal conflicts of our time. It changed hugely the middle east and the world in consequence. It is a must, for Arabs especially to see how Iraq managed and ran the war in a dictatorial regime where initiative was something of a taboo. however, it is not to glorify the military operations but mostly it is so see how Iraq could launch 39 missiles where For those who want to see the story from the Iraqi Point of View. Honestly, only by the fall of the regime that we could take a look at the most reversal conflicts of our time. It changed hugely the middle east and the world in consequence. It is a must, for Arabs especially to see how Iraq managed and ran the war in a dictatorial regime where initiative was something of a taboo. however, it is not to glorify the military operations but mostly it is so see how Iraq could launch 39 missiles where 32 state was on it heels. it is a must really. It is good to note that it is a block in a series of books that were based on captured documents after the fall of Saddam Houssien. Good read~!
