  • Implementing Stability in Iraq and Syria 3
    Hoover Institution Working Group on Military History A HOOVER INSTITUTION ESSAY ON THE DEFEAT OF ISIS Implementing Stability in Iraq and Syria MAX BOOT Military History The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) first captured American attention in January 2014 when its militants burst out of Syria to seize the Iraqi city of Fallujah, which US soldiers and marines had fought so hard to free in 2004. Just a few days later ISIS captured the Syrian city of Raqqa, which became its capital. At this point President Obama was still deriding it as the “JV team,” hardly comparable to the varsity squad, al-Qaeda. It became harder to dismiss ISIS when in June 2014 it conquered Mosul, Iraq’s second-largest city, and proclaimed an Islamic State under its “caliph,” Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. With ISIS executing American hostages, threatening to massacre Yazidis trapped on Mount Sinjar, and even threatening to invade the Kurdish enclave in northern Iraq, President Obama finally authorized air strikes against ISIS beginning in early August 2014. This was soon followed by the dispatch of American troops to Iraq and then to Syria to serve as advisers and support personnel to anti-ISIS forces. By the end of September 2016, there were more than five thousand US troops in Iraq and three hundred in Syria.1 At least those are the official figures; the Pentagon also sends an unknown number of personnel, numbering as many as a few thousand, to Iraq on temporary deployments that don’t count against the official troop number. The administration has also been cagey about what mission the troops are performing; although they are receiving combat pay and even firing artillery rounds at the enemy, there are said to be no “boots on the ground.” The administration is more eager to tout all of the bombs dropped on ISIS; the Defense Department informs us, with impressive exactitude, that “as of 4:59 p.m.

  • Operation Inherent Resolve, Report to the United
    OPERATION INHERENT RESOLVE LEAD INSPECTOR GENERAL REPORT TO THE UNITED STATES CONGRESS JULY 1, 2019‒OCTOBER 25, 2019 ABOUT THIS REPORT In January 2013, legislation was enacted creating the Lead Inspector General (Lead IG) framework for oversight of overseas contingency operations. This legislation, which amended the Inspector General Act, requires the Inspectors General of the Department of Defense (DoD), Department of State (DoS), and U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) to provide quarterly reports to Congress on overseas contingency operations. The DoD Inspector General (IG) is designated as the Lead IG for Operation Inherent Resolve (OIR). The DoS IG is the Associate IG for OIR. The USAID IG participates in oversight for the operation. The Offices of Inspector General of the DoD, DoS, and USAID are referred to in this report as the Lead IG agencies. Other partner agencies also contribute to oversight of OIR. The Lead IG agencies collectively carry out their statutory missions to: • Develop a joint strategic plan to conduct comprehensive oversight of the contingency operation. • Ensure independent and effective oversight of programs and operations of the Federal Government in support of the contingency operation through either joint or individual audits, inspections, and evaluations. • Report quarterly to Congress and the public on the contingency operation and activities of the Lead IG agencies. METHODOLOGY To produce this quarterly report, the Lead IG agencies submit requests for information to the DoD, DoS, and USAID about OIR and related programs. The Lead IG agencies also gather data and information from open sources, including congressional testimony, policy research organizations, press conferences, think tanks, and media reports.

  • Euphrates-Tigris Case Study Olcay Ünver, Dursun Yıldız, Ayşegül Kibaroğlu, Hamza Özgüler
    Euphrates-Tigris Case Study Olcay Ünver, Dursun Yıldız, Ayşegül Kibaroğlu, Hamza Özgüler Key messages • Droughts are a regular and not an exceptional feature in the region. They have significant adverse social, environmental, health, and economic impacts, mainly where rainfed farming is practiced and places where there are existing pressures on water resources. • These impacts have played a significant role in population movements, including migration, and will continue to do so, possibly with increasing speed, in the future. • Droughts can play an exacerbating, catalytic, or triggering role in social unrest and political instability when they precede or occur at the same time with social and humanitarian crises such as mass migration, widespread malnutrition, and rural poverty, as in Syria, following the 2006-2010 drought. • Social unrest and political instability make proper drought management very difficult to implement. • It is imperative to address the mutually exacerbating relationship between droughts and social and humanitarian issues with a broad approach to food security and water availability, including measures to increase resilience, manage risk, and establish/expand safety nets. • Tackling droughts at a basin-scale can help facilitate cooperation among the riparians. Evidence from the past involves attempts for cross-border cooperation over coping with droughts and drought management. However, drought resilience dwindles in the region due to prolonged conflicts and economic decline. • Innovative drought strategies can significantly support resilience building and adaptive capacity development at a regional scale at national and sub-national levels. • There is good room to align policies for disaster risk reduction, climate change mitigation and adaptation, and sustainable development.

    Rev. Carta Inter., Belo Horizonte, v. 14, n. 3, 2019, p. 168-191 The United States influence in Iraq’s post-Saddam reconfiguration of power: The maintenance of instability besides structural changes1 A influência dos Estados Unidos na reconfiguração de poder do Iraque pós-Saddam: A manutenção de instabilidade apesar das mudanças estruturais DOI: 10.21530/ci.v14n3.2019.903 Rodrigo Augusto Duarte Amaral2 Abstract In 2003, the United States of America started a reconfiguration process of Iraq’s political-economic structure. After the overthrown of Saddam Hussein, the United Nation Security Council stated that an international coalition should act in Iraq as a Provisional Authority which was led by the USA, whose responsibility was to rebuilding Iraq (Resolution 1483). For 14 months, the USA formally governed and reformed Iraq’s structure, declaring that its objective was to develop a “new Iraq”. The 2005 constitution marked the consolidation of this new political regime, transforming Iraq in a federal and democratic country as aimed by the USA agenda. But how this new framework of statebuilding worked out for Iraq? Despite the effort, almost fifteen years after the USA formal occupation, Iraq remained politically unstable. The maintenance of insurgent groups against international interference, the rise of Islamic State, the resumption of Iraq Kurdistan interest for independence are some examples of today’s political crisis in Iraq. This paper aims to present how USA executed the reformulation of Iraqi political structure since 2003: changing the political regime, prohibiting any Baath affiliation and action in Iraq’s political theater, and articulating the rise of political parties that historically opposed Baath’s government for almost 40 years.

Reducing these costs requires understanding why individuals choose to resist the transition to democracy, yet current research in the field does not address the issues of a previously nonviolent population turning to terrorism to resist transition to democracy.

Correspondence: Beston Husen Arif, University of Sulaimani, Sulaymaniyah, Iraq. Email: [email protected]. Received: October 14, 2018 Accepted: November 28, 2018 Online Published: December 1, 2018 doi: 10.23918/ijsses.v5i2p152 Abstract: Citizenship education is considered an essential tool for democratic development. This article begins with a reflection of the central problems that are afflicting the democratic process in Iraq, issues such as corruption, civil and ethnic conflict, and populational diversity in Iraqi society. This article argues that by introducing a comprehensive citizenship education program into the school curriculum, it will have a positive effect on both national democratic development and political participation in Iraq. It will also help young learners to recognise their civic rights and responsibilities. The paper also analyses the extent to which citizenship education can play a role in building the Iraqi national identity. This application is not to deny other religious or ethnic identities in Iraq but to encourage them to adhere to civic and national identity. The questions that this article has addressed are the following: What is citizenship education? What is its importance? What are the significant problems facing democracy and citizenship education? And finally, why is citizenship education needed in Iraq? Keywords: Iraq, Citizenship Education, Citizenry, Democracy, Political Participation, Rights and Responsibilities 1.

Al-Khateeb1, Nadhir Al-Ansari2, Sven Knutsson2 1University of Technology, Baghdad, Iraq 2Luleå University of Technology, Luleå, Sweden Email: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Received 14 February 2014; revised 14 March 2014; accepted 20 March 2014 Copyright © 2014 by authors and Scientific Research Publishing Inc. This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract Education can become another burden on the development unless addresses the internal, external and natural challenges by Sustainable Universities that provide an educational, cultural and teaching model through a sustainable development strategy. This paper tends to illustrate the dif- ferent challenges of sustainable development in Iraq coupled with the full ignorance of the con- cept and principles of sustainability and suggests a model for a sustainable university. Although the suggested model is rather complicated, but it is crucial to encompass the different effects of human resources on the sustainable development capitals, at and beyond, the university campus. Keywords Sustainable Development; Iraq; Sustainable Universities; Sustainable Development Strategy 1. Introduction Education is expected to fulfill the humans’ needs and confronts the challenges facing their livelihood, at present and future, through the full accomplishment of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Sustainable de- velopment (SD) is development that meets the needs of the present generations without compromising the abili- ty of future generations to meet their own needs (Brundtland Report, 1987).
