註釋"The American planners of the 2003 Iraqi war sought glory in Iraq’s tribal, communal and political minefields, not realizing that their action might unravel Iraq and threaten regional stability. Behind the façade of ridding Iraq of its weapons of mass destruction, Saddam Hussein’s dictatorial government, and spreading democracy in the Middle East, the U.S. policy makers sought new military bases and control of Iraq’s massive oil reserves. However, the war planners soon found themselves sinking deeper and deeper into Iraq’s long simmering communal and political conflicts with disastrous consequences. (...) This book sheds light on how the 2003 Iraq war engendered and shaped power struggles between Kurds, Shiites and Sunni Arabs." --
