The US seven-year war and occupation of Iraq is driven by several major political forces and informed by a variety of imperial interests. However these interests do not in themselves explain the depth and scope of the sustained, massive and continuing destruction of an entire society and its reduction to a permanent state of war. The range of political forces contributing to the making of the war and the subsequent US occupation include the following (in order of importance).
Tags: 1.3 million Iraqi civilians killed, academics slaughtered, assassinations, destruction of an entire society, escalting Af-Pak wars, Iraq, Iraqi civilization, Iraqi intellectuals destroyed, Kellogg-Brown and Root, Obama, occupation of Iraq, role of Israeli advisers, Sabra and Shatila massacres, universities, US war in Iraq, Zionist Power Configuration, Zionists
