Francisco Ilabaca’s Reviews > The Great War for Civilisation: The Conquest of the Middle East > Status Update

Deep and detailed account of the Iran-iraq conflict that just wrenches your gut. War is hell.

Harrowing and depressing, but exceedingly truthful account of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, the Iranian revolution, Saddam's rise to power, and the Iraq Iran war...so far. First hand accounts of Savak , Baath, and soviet torture methods dont make for light reading at all. About 1000 pages to go.
