The Iran–Iraq War: A Military and Strategic History
M**L
An overview of a War run by the two most absurd armies of the 20th Century.
How did Saddam lose to the US twice in the span of a month even though he had "modern weapons"Why hasn't Iran under the Clerics overran any of it's neighbors?This book reveals just how much of a laughing stock Iran and Iraq were at the time. Mostly through captured Iraqi documents.It weighs out how these two nations were run by some of the biggest fools in the world.Highlights of both sides. Saddam's Generals didn't train their military divisions for years , and let most of their fighter pilots buy their way into their jobs after failing to qualify to fly.The Iranian Clerics purged most of their high command and Officer corp, they really believed that instead of using Modern Tactics, human wave attacks with untrained conscripts and prayer was their path to victory.This book will take you almost a day by day, month by month as you will witness one of the worst managed and unnecessary wars in Human History. This book is amazing for nerds who like to get into Military History.
