TAREQ Y ISMAEL
The murderous conflict in Iraq and the humanitarian catastrophe fomented by the 2003 Anglo-American invasion continue to have a huge impact on the country. This book assesses the extent of the continuing damage. It charts the background to the 2003 invasion, providing an overview of recent Iraqi history and Iraqi-US relations. It goes on to consider the numerous reports compiled over recent years by UN agencies and similar bodies which provide a great deal of empirical evidence showing how the catastrophe continues. The book includes lengthy extracts from these reports, which document problems such as food scarcity, forced displacement of people, refugees, the adverse effect on children including on their education, the growth of child labour, the adverse economic impact including adverse distributional and welfare impacts, abuse of women and human rights abuses. The overall picture painted is that the situation in Iraq, brought about by the 2003 war, continues dire.
