" After I have finished my book, I cannot but thank my brother and dear friend Sheikh Nazem Hamza Alwan Al-Jubouri. He was a sincere and objective reference when I was discussing with him some issues in the research. I loaded him with reviewing the book when I finished it in its final form. I have all thanks and love for him.I would also like to express my thanks and appreciation to historian and great military expert Brig. Gen. Sobhi Nazim, as his testimony after a systematic scientific dialogue with him on the sources of Iraqi armament, has embellished my book with undoubtable facts, I greet him wherever he is.And thanks to my Syrian Arab thinker friend Samir Saifan, who reviewed the draft book for the first time.A greeting of appreciation for Dr. Musa Moussawi, son of grand scholar Ayatollah Abu l-Hasan, may Allah have mercy on him. His writings, his neutral scientific credentials and his personal and accurate knowledge of Ayatollah Khomeini and President Saddam Hussein were scientific support for me to complete the facts that I sought in my research, for a good neighborhood and peaceful future for coming generations, in which the spirit of tolerance and cooperation between the two Muslim countries will prevail in Iraq and Iran on the basis of good neighborliness, mutual respect, cooperation and non-interference in each other's internal affairs, exceeding the greediness, acquisition of the rights of others and imposition of beliefs on the other through returning to the spirit of Islam, which is common between the two neighboring countries."

This report is an outgrowth of the questions raised in the fall of 1980 and spring of 1981 about the conduct of air operations in the war between Iran and Iraq. Unlike previous Middle Eastern wars, this one had continued over a protracted period while we in the United States and in the US Air Force had been able to observe it only from a distance. As the war haltingly progressed, we began to have a fair picture of what was going on in the air war, though our information was far from complete or detailed. The sketchy picture that emerged, however, seemed to indicate that combatants were using their airpower assets in way contrary to our expectations. Most notably, it seemed that both sides seemed content not to use their airpower and relied instead on ground forces for most combat operations. This report examines the air war between Iran and Iraq, but rather than attempt simply to lay out what happened in the war, it attempts to discern why Iran and Iraq used their airpower as they did. The results of this study do not call into question any basic US Air Force airpower approaches, but they do highlight significant considerations that affect the use of airpower by Third World nations.

Religion, nationalism, ethnicity, economics, and geopolitics all are important in explaining Iran's goals and tactics in its relationship with the outside world, as are the agendas of key security institutions and the ambitions of their leaders. This report assesses Iran's security policy in light of these factors. It examines broad drivers of Iran's security policy, describes important security institutions, explores decisionmaking, and reviews Iran's relations with key countries. The authors conclude that Iraq is widely recognized as the leading threat to Iran's Islamic regime and Afghanistan is seen as an emerging threat. In contrast, Iran has solid, if not necessarily warm, relations with Syria and established working ties to Pakistan and Russia. Iran's policies toward its neighbors are increasingly prudent: It is trying to calm regional tension and end its isolation, although its policies toward Israel and the United States are often an exception to this policy. Iran's security forces, particularly the regular military, are often voices of restraint, preferring shows of force to overactive confrontations. Finally, Iran's security forces generally respect and follow the wishes of Iran's civilian leadership; conducting rogue operations is rare to nonexistent.

The real story behind the investigation of Iraq, and the basis for the MSNBC documentary of the same name hosted by Rachel Maddow Filled with news-making revelations that made it a New York Times bestseller, Hubris takes us behind the scenes at the White House, CIA, Pentagon, State Department, and Congress to show how George W. Bush came to invade Iraq--and how his administration struggled with the devastating fallout. Hubris connects the dots between Bush's expletive-laden outbursts at Saddam Hussein, the bitter battles between the CIA and the White House, the fights within the intelligence community over Saddam's supposed weapons of mass destruction, the outing of an undercover CIA officer, and the Bush administration's misleading sales campaign for war. Written by veteran reporters Michael Isikoff and David Corn, this is an inside look at how a president took the nation to war using faulty and fraudulent intelligence. It's a dramatic page-turner and an intriguing account of conspiracy, backstabbing, bureaucratic ineptitude, journalistic malfeasance, and arrogance.
