Editorial Reviews

Review

“The Iraq War:Strategy, Tactics, And Military Lessons is an extensive study of the second war against Saddam Hussein's regime. Expert military analyst Anthony Cordesman knowlagably dissects the course of the war as well as the interaction of joint forces day by day. Hethen draws lessons from the forces, naval forces, including intellegence concerning weapons of mass destruction. A thorough, information-laden presentation, The Iraq War is a very highly recommended and timely addition to Military History reference collections and reading lists.”–Internet Bookwatch

“Relying on myriad Western sources, Cordesman dissects Iraq's conventional force structure, its missile capabilities, and its past and future chenical, biological, and nuclear weapons capabilities....this is a very useful source for Persian Gulf regional as well as those interested in issues of weapons proliferation in today's world.”–Social and Behavioral Sciences

“The disturbing lesson of Anthony Coredsman's Iraq and the War of Sanctions, an authoritative study of American bombing of Iraq's chemical and biological and nuclear installations after 1991, is that using high-tech weaponry merely slows down, but cannot halt, a determined attempt by a rogue nation to create deadly arsenals.”–New York Review of Books

“Cordesman's documentation is thorough....analysis of the IRGC and of Iran's problems in integrating the regular army and IRGC are excellent.”–Int.Journal Middle East Study


Book Description

An in-depth examination of Iraq's domestic politics, foreign policy goals, and future military capabilities.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Summary!, December 26, 2000
By Robert Blanke (Montgomery, AL, USA) - See all my reviews
Whether you stand for or against continuing the sanctions regime, this title is a must read. Easily the best summary of the current situation in Iraq presently available. The compendium of events in and of itself is of great value, but the greater value here is the insight provided into the strategy that Saddam Hussein is using to remove the sanctions.
