“Offers us a fascinating new perspective on the Second World War—its impact on local societies in the Middle East.” (Richard J. Aldrich, author of The Black Door) This dynamic history is the first to construct a total picture of the experience and impact of World War II in Iran and Iraq. Contending that these two countries were more important to the Allied forces’ war operations than has ever been acknowledged, historian Ashley Jackson investigates the grand strategy of the Allies and their operations in the region and the continuing legacy of Western intervention in the Middle East. Iran and Iraq served as the first WWII theater in which the U.S., the U.K., and the U.S.S.R. fought alongside each other. Jackson charts the intense Allied military activity in Iran and Iraq and reveals how deeply the war impacted common people’s lives. He also provides revelations about the true nature of Anglo-American relations in the region, the beginnings of the Cold War, and the continuing corrosive legacy of Western influence in these lands. “Skillfully brings together the complex range of developments that took place in Iraq and Iran during the Second World War.” —Evan Mawdsley, author of December 1941 “A brilliant book that confirms Ashley Jackson’s place among the preeminent scholars of the British empire.” —Joe Maiolo, author of Cry Havoc “Consistently fascinating and thought-provoking.” —Simon Ball, author of The Bitter Sea “In this lucid work, filled with telling details and well-crafted arguments, Jackson has finally revealed the undoubted significance of Iran and Iraq to the wider war.” —Niall Barr, author of Eisenhower's Armies

This valuable book has finally been translated in its entirety to English from the original Assyrian language (neo-Syriac). It is an important book because the accounts are mostly from Assyrians themselves. Those who were there at the most critical period in the recent and tumultuous history of the Assyrian people. The author was a warrior, soldier, and a leader of his tribe and was from the well-known Malik Ismael family of Upper Tyareh. It has specific facts and details not found in any other book. It includes a detailed account of the betrayal and murder of H.H. Mar Benyamin Shimun XIX, the Patriarch who was the spiritual and temporal leader of his Assyrian community during WWI. It also includes details of the negotiations between the Assyrians and the British-controlled Iraqi government, which eventually led to what is known as the Simele Massacre by the Iraqi government and the exodus of a part of the community from Iraq to Syria in 1933. This book also includes details of many of the battles during 1914 to 1933 of the Assyrians of the Hakkari mountains in southeastern Turkey and their brethren in today’s northwestern Iran. They fiercely defended themselves and their families against the brutal assaults of the Turks, Kurds, Iranians, and Arabs. They were usually outnumbered and outgunned, but they were often victorious as their enemy broke ranks and ran. They were eventually forced to leave their ancestral homeland in southeastern Turkey and northwestern Iran, where they had lived happily since time immemorial. They were then directed to Iraq, where the British needed their young fighters. This book details the military alliance of those Assyrians with the Russians and then the British and the pledges those governments made and broke repeatedly regarding a semi-independent Assyrian settlement, culminating in the Simele Massacre, a permanent stain on the Iraqi state.

Drawing primarily from US State Department archives and the four volumes of the official British history of World War I in Mesopotamia (published during 1923-1927), Majd reconstructs the political and military history of Iraq in World War I, a period that began with fierce Iraqi resistance against the British and ended with the consolidation of British control under the mandate system. In addition to documenting the military ebb and flow of Britain's colonial project in Iraq, Majd also presents two chapters considering the aftermath of the war in terms of Iraq's commercial decline and the impact of disease.

The US invasion of Iraq in 2003 was done mainly, if one is to believe US policy at the time, to liberate the people of Iraq from an oppressive dictator. However, the many protests in London, New York, and other cities imply that the policy of “making the world safe for democracy” was not shared by millions of people in many Western countries. Thinking about this controversy inspired the present volume, which takes a closer look at how society responded to the outbreaks and conclusions of the First and Second World Wars. In order to examine this relationship between the conduct of wars and public opinion, leading scholars trace the moods and attitudes of the people of four Western countries (Great Britain, France, Germany and Italy) before, during and after the crucial moments of the two major conflicts of the twentieth century. Focusing less on politics and more on how people experienced the wars, this volume shows how the distinction between enthusiasm for war and concern about its consequences is rarely clear-cut.

This book documents the case that World War II happened in such a different world that it has little relevance to today's foreign policy, as well as the case that U.S. participation in WWII was not justifiable. Specifically, WWII was not fought to rescue anyone from persecution, was not necessary for defense, was the most damaging and destructive event yet to occur, and would not have happened had any one of these factors been missing: World War I, the manner in which WWI was ended, U.S. funding and arming of Nazis, a U.S. arms race with Japan, U.S. development of racial segregation, U.S. development of eugenics, U.S. development of genocide and ethnic cleansing, or the U.S. and British prioritization of opposing the Soviet Union at all costs. The author corrects numerous misconceptions about the most popular and misunderstood war in western culture, in order to build a case for moving to a world beyond war.
