内容説明

In March 2003, the United States launched pre-emptive strikes against Iraq after President Bush's ultimatum to Saddam Hussein expired. What were the reasons that pushed America to ignore UN Security Council votes and to attack Iraq regardless of world opinion? This important book examines the paths that were taken by America that preceded the invasion. Iraq has lived under stringent sanctions and has been bombed by the US almost daily since President Bush attacked in 1991. What motives were really behind the timing and seemingly unprovoked ferocity of this attack? We probably will never know. This book examines the recent history between the biggest oil consuming country in the world and the second largest oil reserve country. Was oil the trigger or a belated and indirect September 11th payback? Was it a deal with Israel or a Bush election warm-up?
