| Abstract | ||
| Iraq is the country who has an abundance of what brings its rise and fall; sun, oil, rivers and wars. The sun shines three hundred and sixty five days a year, it does not rest not even on the Sabbath; however, it fails to illuminate the darkness’s which shroud religious and racial discrimination among its people. The oil brings invaders from both inside and out, invaders who assumed the Iraqi people did not have the capability to reach the rational of conserving their treasure. The intruders obtain it all, keeping it all for them and leaving the Iraqi nation starving and vulnerable. The rivers flow with a gentle nature from the tip of the north to the last grains of sand, which cover the south, never exploited for their profitable capabilities. Iraq has fought single wars which equate to more time than both world wars, yet the grieving period was by far the shortest. Wars that have left men, women and even children physically disabled as well as mentally handicapped due to the extremities and suffering caused. The totalitarianism, superstructure and prolonged international sanction also led to the demise of the value system, deforming the structure of society beyond repair. This has resulted in what cannot be described as anything more than sheer abnormality and social illness. | ||
