For the last thirty-five years, Iraq has been in either direct or indirect war. Due to a various, reasons Iraq has been the target of terrorist groups for the last 15 years. Thirteen years earlier, Iraq was under crippling economic sanctions, and ten years before that Iraq was at war for eight long years. The culmination of these has made Iraq an unstable country with an inefficient government, worn out infrastructure and a devastated economy.
