Download or read book Aliens in Uniforms and Contested Nationalisms: The Role of The Iraq Levies in Shaping Aspects of Iraqi Nationalism Under The British Mandate of Iraq (1921-1933) written by Sopanit Angsusingha and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Iraq Levies were formed by the British authorities to secure imperial order and maintain stability in the British Mandate of Iraq (1921-1932). The social composition of the Iraq Levies which consisted mainly of Assyrian recruits and its association with the British not only generated competition with the Iraqi army, but also instigated communal tension between the Assyrians and the rest of the Iraqi population. Based on archival research, this study examines the recruitment and operations of the Iraq Levies in order to understand how they led to the Assyrian massacre in 1933 and shaped Iraqi nationalism as militant and exclusionary. The main research questions are: How did British colonial policy and the Iraq Levies alienate the Assyrians from the rest of the Iraqi population? How did the deployment of the Iraq Levies cause communal conflicts with other ethnic communities in Iraq? And how did the Iraq Levies promote an exclusive definition of Iraqi nationalism that led to the massacre of the Assyrians in 1933? I argue that British use of the Iraq Levies as a tool of "divide and rule" in Iraq shaped the role of the Iraq Levies in producing the Assyrian as "other," causing communal conflicts and shaping aspects of Iraqi nationalism in the following ways. First, the "martial race theory" used to form an Assyrian Levy force made the Assyrians appear as alien in Iraqi society. Secondly, the class regimental system that deployed the Assyrian forces against Kurdish rebellions generated inter-communal conflicts and generated suspicion of the Assyrian community. Thirdly, a symbiotic relationship between the British and the Assyrians, through the Iraq Levies, promoted the Assyrian nationalist movement that challenged the integrity of the Iraqi state. Consequently, the Iraq Levies aroused anger and hatred of the Iraqi state toward the Assyrians, and resulted in the 1933 Assyrian massacre by the Iraqi army that shaped Iraqi nationalism as exclusive, militaristic and anti-minority.

Download or read book Reforging a Forgotten History: Iraq and the Assyrians in the Twentieth Century written by Sargon Donabed and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2015-02-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who are the Assyrians and what role did they play in shaping modern Iraq? Were they simply bystanders, victims of collateral damage who played a passive role in the history of Iraq? And how have they negotiated their position throughout various periods of Iraq's state-building processes? This book details the narrative and history of Iraq in the 20th century and reinserts the Assyrian experience as an integral part of Iraq's broader contemporary historiography. It is the first comprehensive account to contextualize this native people's experience alongside the developmental processes of the modern Iraqi state. Using primary and secondary data, this book offers a nuanced exploration of the dynamics that have affected and determined the trajectory of the Assyrians' experience in 20th century Iraq.

Download or read book The British Experience In Iraq From 1914-1926: What Wisdom Can The United States Draw From Its Experience? written by Major Matthew W. Williams and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2014-08-15 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis examines the British experience in Iraq from 1914-1926. Britain invaded Iraq to secure its oil interests and to protect its lines of communication to India. The British initially defeated Ottoman forces and captured the Basra vilayet (province) in December 1914. Although Basra’s capture accomplished the objectives that Britain had sought to achieve at the outset of the campaign, it was followed by an ill-advised advance to Baghdad that culminated in defeat by the Ottomans at Kut-al-Amara in 1916. The British regrouped, however, and resumed the offensive, capturing Baghdad in 1917 and Mosul in 1918. After the war, Britain managed Iraq as a League of Nations Mandate from 1920-1932. The British installed Iraq’s first ruler, King Feisal I in 1921 and helped demarcate its northern border with Turkey in 1926. This thesis explores the British military campaign in Iraq during World War I and its subsequent civil administration. The thesis will examine the actions Britain took during this time period and determine, what wisdom, if any, that the United States (US) can draw from these experiences in relation to its current efforts in Iraq. This study concludes that, if the US is going to accomplish its objectives in Iraq, it should base its future relationship with Iraq primarily by incentives and not coercion. Furthermore, any attempt by the US to simultaneously develop Iraq into an independent nation-state and maintain dominant, long-term influence will likely result in failure. Overall, if the US wants to accomplish its goals in Iraq, it should treat Iraq like an equal and strive to be the best friend it has never had.

Download or read book The Baghdad Set written by Adrian O'Sullivan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-05-06 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the first ever intelligence history of Iraq from 1941 to 1945, and is the third and final volume of a trilogy on regional intelligence and counterintelligence operations that includes Nazi Secret Warfare in Occupied Persia (Iran) (2014), and Espionage and Counterintelligence in Occupied Persia (Iran) (2015). This account of covert operations in Iraq during the Second World War is based on archival documents, diaries, and memoirs, interspersed with descriptions of all kinds of clandestine activity, and contextualized with analysis showing the significance of what happened regionally in terms of the greater war. After outlining the circumstances of the rise and fall of the fascist Gaylani regime, Adrian O’Sullivan examines the activities of the Allied secret services (CICI, SOE, SIS, and OSS) in Iraq, and the Axis initiatives planned or mounted against them. O'Sullivan emphasizes the social nature of human intelligence work and introduces the reader to a number of interesting, talented personalities who performed secret roles in Iraq, including the distinguished author Dame Freya Stark.

Download or read book Survival Among The Kurds written by John S. Guest and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1993. The Yezidis are a community of around 200,000 Kurds who possess their own religion, quite distinct from Islam, which most other Kurds profess, and from the Christian and Jewish faiths. The Yezidis live in the northern parts of Iraq and Syria, in eastern Turkey, in Germany and in the ex-Soviet republics of Armenia and Georgia. (In Armenia the Yezidis, long classified as Kurds, are now recognized as a separate minority group and the term 'Kurd' is applied only to Moslem Kurds.) This book stems from a conversation with the Yezidi priest of the village who remarked that now the children were learning to read and write they were asking him questions about the Yezidi scriptures and the history of the community. Lacking any written material, he could only repeat to them the oral traditions he had himself learned as a child.

Download or read book Britain's Informal Empire in the Middle East written by Daniel Silverfarb and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1986-06-12 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a penetrating account of Anglo-Iraqi relations from 1929, when Britain decided to grant independence to Iraq, to 1941, when hostilities between the two nations came to an end. Showing how Britain tried--and failed--to maintain its political influence, economic ascendancy, and strategic position in Iraq after independence, Silverfarb presents a suggestive analysis of the possibilities and limitations of indirect rule by imperial powers in the Third World. The book also tells of the rapid disintegration of Britain's dominance in the Middle East after World War I and portrays the struggle of a recently independent Arab nation to free itself from the lingering grip of a major European power.
