	The July 14th 1958 Revolution in Iraq
		The revolution granted freedom to the teachers and students who were dismissed by the old regime because of their political activism and returned to their schools.
		The revolution was concerned with improving the status of the peasants and the economic conditions of the Iraqi rural areas.
		It was a real revolution in the sense that power was transferred from the monarchy and the large landlords to the national bourgeoisie class in the new republic.

	Michel Pablo: The Arab Revolution (Preface)
		To the degree that the Iraqi revolution deepened, with creation by the masses of their own organs of dual power, including militias, and the increased politicisation of the expanding trade-union organizations, the social aspect of the revolution predominated over its initial national and anti-imperialist aspect.
		Kassem is only the super-Kerensky of the Iraqi revolution, i.e., the representative of a Bonapartist regime of an extreme fragility, which is trying to maintain a precarious balance between the revolutionary drive of the masses and the conservative and reactionary forces, still unable for the moment to go over to a counter-revolutionary offensive.
		But the Iraqi Communist Party, now the fierce defender of the country’s independence, should have justified the temporary subordination of unification to the imperative needs of the development of the social revolution in Iraq on the basis of quite other arguments than those it is at present using [5].

	Strategies for Promoting Democracy in Iraq by Eric Davis: Special Reports: U.S. Institute of Peace
		Iraqi nationalists explicitly rejected sectarianism and instead argued for a unified Iraq in which ethnic background was not a political issue.
		If Iraqi youth were involved in the development of this channel through public opinion surveys conducted in secondary schools and universities, and their opinions were taken seriously, the channel could be very successful and serve as a vehicle for promoting a more positive outlook among young people.
		Iraqis can best accomplish this by remaining focused on the tasks at hand—namely, expanding the number of projects that promote democratization—and not allowing violence to deter them from their goals of building a democratic and just society.

	Arab Israeli Wars Period 1948-1973, Ted Thornton, NMH, Northfield Mount Hermon
		Revolution in Egypt (1952): A rebellious group of army officers in Egypt, motivated by hatred of British meddling and by King Farouk's corruption and incompetence (see) seized power on July 23.
		On September 9, Egypt's ruling "Free Officers" instituted the first of a series of land reforms aimed at redressing what was seen as an imbalance in land ownership (70% of the arable land had been in the hands of 1% of the population).
		Also in 1963, the "White Revolution," proclaimed by the Shah's government in Iran, called for land reform, nationalization of the forests, the sale of state-owned enterprises to private interests, electoral changes to enfranchise women, profit sharing in industry, and an anti-illiteracy campaign in the nation's schools.

		As a result of the victory at Mosul, British authority was extended to all the Iraqi wilayat (sing., wilayah-province) with the exception of the Kurdish highlands bordering Turkey and Iran, the land alongside the Euphrates from Baghdad south to An Nasiriyah, and the Shia cities of Karbala and An Najaf.
		As a counterforce to the nationalistic inclinations of the monarchy and as a means of insuring the king's dependence, the British cultivated the tribal shaykhs, whose power had been waning since the end of the nineteenth century.
		The British decision at the Cairo Conference to establish an indigenous Iraqi army was significant.

		The term used for the colonies of British North America that joined together in the American Revolution against the mother country, adopted the Declaration of Independence in 1776, and became the United States.

		Some of the more radical Revolutionary leaders were disappointed in the turn toward conservatism when the Revolution was over, but liberty and democracy had been fixed as the highest ideals of the United States.

	Little Snippet: Iraqi Revolution!
		I was scanning through few of the hundreds or perhaps thousands of Iraqi blogs and I couldn’t believe the amazing skills that some of those young Iraqi writers have and how intelligent and daring are the opinions they are posting out there.
		Bright and open minded Iraqis are being put out of sight because they raise too many good questions that no one wants to answer.
		It’s the duty of every Iraqi to be fully involved in talking about what is going on and trying to find a way out of it all.

	History Guy: Anglo-Iraqi Wars
		The Mandate government almost completely excluded Iraqis, as the British imported experienced civil servants from India (also ruled by Britain) to help administer the country.
		Since the ending of the British Mandate and the advent of full Iraqi independence in 1932, Britain retained a great deal of military influence in Iraq, despite lingering opposition from many Arab nationalists.
		Almost immediately, an international coalition of nations gathered a powerful military force under the authority of the United Nations and the leadership of the United States, first to defend the oil-rich kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and secondly, to force Iraq to withdraw from occupied Kuwait.

	A Tiny Revolution: An Iraqi View On Lancet Study
		Now I am aware that the study is being used here by both sides of the argument in the context of domestic American politics, and that pains me. As if it is different for Iraqis whether 50,000 Iraqis were killed as a result of the war or 600,000.
		The bottom line is that there is a steady increase in civilian deaths, that the health system is rapidly deteriorating, and that things are clearly not going in the right direction.
		On the other hand, the people who are attacking them come across as indifferent to the suffering of Iraqis, especially when they have made no obvious effort to provide a more accurate body count.
