Summary |
"Placing the second US-Iraq conflict in the context of emerging trends in international relations, this volume examines the broad framework of US policy toward Iraq under the administration of George W. Bush. The Second Iraq War marks the third time since 1991 that the United States has invaded a Muslim country, and this book details not only the specifics of the conflict, but the War's broad impact on US relations with Muslim states, both in a regional and global context." "It is a supplementary text for courses on conflict and security, foreign policy, Middle East studies and international relations more generally."--BOOK JACKET |
