Operational Art: The Missing Link in the Iran-Iraq War
http://www.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/a195452.pdf
April 1988
This monograph analyzes the Iran-Iraq War from its
inception In September of 1930 through the Iranian Faw
Counteroffensive of February 1904. It uses the precepts of
operatiornal art to examine the performance of the
belligerents in this prolonged and bloody conflict.
The monograph first reviews the political and historical
background leading up to the Iraqi Invasion on 23 September
1980. Next it distills the war into its distinctive phases*,
exploring the relationship between political objectives and
the military means employed to attain them, by phasi. It
concludes with an analysis of how well Iran and Iraq h&,ve
applied the precepts of operational art in this ongoing
conflict.
This monograph concludes that the Iran-Iraqi war has not
served the policies of the belligerents well. Their
collective failure to implement the principles of
operational art coupled with their failure to execute
tactical operations in a combined arms fashion have made
this war a minion of death. It ends by proffering a
possible solution for an Iranian victory using the precepts
of operational art and by commenting on Iraq's present
efforts to settle the conflict peacefully by drawing in the
United States.
