Description

Iraq's Sunni Insurgency by Ahmed Hashim provides an in-depth analysis of the complex and multifaceted nature of the insurgency that emerged in Iraq following the 2003 invasion. The book examines the immediate and deeper sociopolitical origins of the insurgency, as well as its various ideological strands and methods. It also explores how these factors contributed to the insurgency's high tempo of operations between 2004 and 2006, resulting in significant military and civilian casualties. A turning point came in 2007, when a new approach by the US helped reduce violence levels in Iraq. The book also delves into the internal divisions within the insurgency, including tensions between those focused on practical goals and transnational Islamists with broader objectives.
