"The true causes of war"
Ten years ago, the United States finally completed what they had launched a decade ago - Iraq killed Saddam Hussein. And naturally, it was the Americans who were interested in imposing their own view of this war on the world. Everything suited them: accusations of war for oil, and charges of genocide, and accusations of violating international law, and even outright deception about chemical weapons Saddam Hussein. They were interested only in the fact that the true causes of the war were never voiced, at least in full.

Let's try to fill this gap. The United States, unlike so many countries and peoples, has the unique ability to learn from its own and others' mistakes. This, it should be noted, is a very valuable and necessary quality. The USA, with incredible difficulty and rather randomly defeating its main geopolitical opponent of the 20th century of the USSR, learned the main lesson. Any large and resource-rich country is capable of short historical deadline to make a modernization spurt and become a threat to US plans for world hegemony. Twice the States missed this point - in the case of the USSR of the 30s and in the case of China of the nineties.

For a modernization breakthrough, a number of conditions are required - this includes the availability of resources (natural, human, technological, industrial, informational, etc.), the ability of the state to mobilize the population and these resources, the presence of a modernization ideology.

The Middle East has come too close to the line beyond which one of the countries in the region could “shoot”. Actually, one has already “fired” - Iran. Over the thirty years since the 79 revolution, Iran has managed to fulfill all of these conditions and make a serious breakthrough. Shahsky Iran, it is worth noting, was also on this path, but after modernization, it completely became controlled by Western corporations, which this very technological breakthrough in Iran created. The ayatollahs did the same, but relying on their own strength. And they won.

However, the Iranian experience is not applicable to the rest of the Middle East countries - and not only because Iran is Shiites. In Iran, the imperial nationalist ideology is traditionally strong, drawing on the real historical experience of Persia’s millennial imperial past. The fusion of this ideology with Islam created the ideology that mobilized the nation, which managed to break through the blockade and the embargo.

For the Wahhabi monarchies of the Arabian Peninsula, the United States was and remains completely calm - professing a fundamental Islam that does not tolerate innovations, monarchs are not able to modernize and withdraw their countries from the hydrocarbon dead end in which they are staying. They are objectively dependent on external conditions, and therefore already do not pose the slightest threat to US interests.

However, the secular regimes in the Middle East have shown that Sunni countries are also capable of modernization, moreover, swift and successful. Each of these countries - Egypt, Syria, Libya, Algeria - had and still has insurmountable difficulties that do not allow them to use the experience of Iran. However, potentially it was on the path of secular development — and no more — that they managed to achieve very serious successes in a relatively short time.

It is not surprising that the Arab Spring, under the slogans of which the archaic and fundamental clericalism descends to the Middle East, has become desirable for the United States and was largely designed by them. It is precisely wild cave Islam that can completely and forever discard this region in development, eliminate the danger of modernization and, ultimately, a threat to the position of the United States. That is why the United States is utterly fierce to smash Syria and defeat Iraq - simply because in these countries a society was created in which Islam gave way to secular development, a new and in many ways fundamentally different ideology of coexistence of different peoples, religions and social groups was created. Iraq was on the first place in the list of targets for destruction, since Saddam Hussein, in addition to creating an ideological base and mobilization opportunities for a breakthrough, also had enormous raw material resources. It was they who could become the financial base of modernization in Iraq, and that is why the first and most important attack was directed at him.

In fact, if we hit on a fierce alternative, without two Iraqi wars, today we would have two powerful industrial states of the Middle East - Iraq and Iran, which were the leaders for the whole region. Perhaps we would already see integration processes gathering the region into a huge conglomerate of different, but going to the same goal of states. A certain Islamic Union, in which, as in the European Union, everything would be held in two leading states.

And it is precisely this development option that was categorically unacceptable for the United States. Actually, that's why they rolled Iraq into small rubble.

      ....exactly!
      And moreover, dear colleague, they say, according to the plans of the USSR SA, in the 3 world it was there in the Middle East that the advanced echelons of the ZKVO should break through and with the capture of oil-bearing areas, the war was supposed to end. Naturally our victory. And even quite likely, without the use of nuclear weapons.
      Imagine a world where the main oil crane in the hands of the Politburo!
      And access to the Atlantic - should have been a distracting secondary front ...

        I put a minus to this article for only one sentence: "... having defeated ... my main enemy, the USSR." The USA would never have defeated the USSR if not for Gorbachev's betrayal. Only he and no one else is to blame for the collapse of the USSR. I would be glad to wake up in the morning to hear on the news that a criminal case has been opened against citizen Gorbachev under the article "Treason to the Motherland."

        The author is absolutely right, Satdam Hussein had his own nuclear program (the Israeli Air Force bombed the reactor), the Germans built powerful electromagnetic guns. Between the 1st and 2nd Iraqi wars, Hussein tried to revive the nuclear program, assembled equipment but there was a blockade, his people were under a tight cap ... Oil is certainly good as a bonus, but the main customer of these Muslim pogroms of recent decades is Israel. Now, with the help of Turkey and with the money of the Saudi monarchies, he is pressing Syria and really wants to catch up with Iran.

        comrades and gentlemen, the article is correct. There could be no victory in the capture of the Middle East just for the reason that the United States is not dependent on this oil, it’s just that they are not fools and do not use their oil if it is possible to use someone else’s to buy it for their candy wrappers

        And now, India with Brazil and the other group are catching up.

        So one industrial country more - one less - there is no difference.
        I'm still leaning towards "oil", plus creating a hotbed of chaos for fishing in troubled waters (keeping the military industry doping on arms sales).
        Otherwise, the world was dominated by a bright prospect of "universal peace" and "the uselessness of weapons."

      - In my opinion, not quite accurate. Twice the States missed this point - in the case of the USSR of the 30s and in the case of China of the nineties. - Yes, the States did not miss this moment and did not click their beak! They provoked a famine in the USSR in the same thirties with their policies, and in China in 1989, when China was just starting its modernization spurt, it was just a start, the States had already spotted the danger and had a good attempt - Tiananmen Square. So they didn’t click, but everyone in their usual practice perfectly predicted and tried very hard to prevent the development of events that were undesirable for them. Unless they tried direct aggression. So the warriors from the amers are so-so, direct aggression would have come to them with what else side!
      And even if this version is correct, I think that stopping the jerks of some countries that have matured for this is the same as stopping scientific and technological progress. Nobody succeeded. It was possible to delay, slow down, but not completely to stop.
      Well, let's take a country ready for a dash. Even if the States bring chaos there, well, for two decades in this country they will cut each other, kill. Then they will either split up, like Korea or Sudan, or one side will win completely. About five in this country will begin to revive - again there will be modernization ideas and more. Iraq fell victim to direct aggression. It seems there is now a complete mess and terrorist attacks. Everything is much worse than under Saddam - the Iraqi people think so. But Maliki is rushing with plans to buy good weapons. What for? Something tells me that Iraq is stubbornly going to modernize again. And that would not interfere - a little good weapons would not hurt them. Moreover, the amers crushed them, they should have been under Amer’s influence, but no, they are friends with Iran, but they just pretend with the amers ...

        Everyone knows that Americans make the world's best pavers. Iraq, for the Texas Bush family, was the largest paver that rolled billions of bucks into the sand. And, in return - such as control over the Persian Gulf. Fig with two, let’s better control the Saudis, otherwise there are old uncles, but they didn’t leave childhood, they all played war games with strangers and lit a bunch of camels, they will soon eat all the barley in the world .. (Saudi Arabia, the world's largest importer of barley, purchasing more than 40% of world imports, will reduce barley purchases by 17,6% in 2012/13. A decrease in purchases is facilitated by a smaller yield in the key suppliers of barley - Ukraine, Australia, Russia. Also, large reserves accumulated by the beginning of the season can reduce the appetite for imported grain. Thanks to record 2011/12 imports, Saudi Arabia not only replenished stocks that had fallen sharply by the end of 2010/11, but also secured a certain reserve for the current season. Initial stocks in 2012/13 were at the highest level over the past 15 years, which, according to the USDA, should provide a record level of consumption of 7,5 million tons.)

      No, just earlier, when they pitted different Indian tribes against each other, they understood the simple truth that you can earn on both opposing sides, as the opponents weakened, and clean up their territories. This amers perfectly used in the first and second world wars. Now they are driving the East into the Middle Ages, creating for themselves cheap sources of raw materials and consumers of "glass beads". Russia is also a big "raw material Klondike", so a little earlier or later the US plans to do something similar with our country. IF WE ARE ALL TOGETHER, WE WILL ALLOW THIS.

But the caring son was sometimes tormented by doubts: There are many thoughts in my head, but I don’t know which one is right. . However, he was pleased with the results: I made good decisions, not only in the past, but also in the future.

    The most correct interpretation of the war in Iraq by N. Starikov somehow Saddam was still a puppet of amers and this whole war was calculated and subsequently it happened that Iraq didn’t resist although there was no reason to attack. such a pleasure, and in the event of war, he would fight selflessly. And beat an imaginary enemy without significant losses on his part, and to raise the rating than not charging.

    Let's look deeper. Namely, the results of the war. There was such a conqueror Alexander the Great. He conquered half the world. And where is his conquest today?

      War makes sense in the long run if the occupied territories are settled and / or assimilation of conquered lands is carried out.
      Otherwise, it's just a banal robbery. In ancient times, in order to rob a neighbor, no excuse was invented, such as "spreading democracy" or something like that. This is much more honest. In our hypocritical time, they try not to even pronounce the word "war". There is military action, but there is no war - "forcing peace", "spreading democracy", etc.

    Yeah, they fought against each other for 8 years and then they will conclude an alliance.
    As for the Wahhabi monarchies, the author is simply not in the subject. They are just being modernized in full swing. Science cities are already building in Saudi Arabia.
    Plus, Dubai has become a global financial center.

    In fact, for the United States, the entire continent of Eurasia is a competitor ... Europe, Russia, China, India, Iran, and other states that are gaining strength. With their support for "Islamic fundamentalism" they are ready to rock the entire continent and throw it off in one fell swoop - while staying overseas, they collect only "stitch coupons". It's a shame that Europe does not want (or because of the betrayal of its interests by the leadership of the EU countries) to understand that for the United States it is also a competitor, and an "ally" only for the time being. Strengthening and strengthening of radicalism in the Middle East and Central Asia will inevitably hit Europe due to the large "Islamic diaspora" ... all of this will certainly hit both Russia and India, and China will not escape - because the markets and sources of gas and oil supplies will fly to hell at the beginning of the cataclysm ... the United States itself from such a collapse - only benefits: on another continent they are still safer, they themselves will not fight directly against Russia or China, and "watching the battle from the outside" will come to the already cleaned war territory, with all their deposits

    In fact, Vyacheslav Nikolayevich Matuzov, specialist in the Middle East, is more credible than this article. And he bluntly says that the United States has much more global plans than some single third world countries. the states plan for many decades to come, and their main goal is Russia and China. Through the concept of the Greater Middle East, which also includes African countries, the United States began to chop down all regimes, including allied ones (Iraq, Libya, Egypt). They are just pawns on this chessboard. And the main goals are Russia and China.
