The Long Shadow of the Iran-Iraq War ( Montazeri)
Hussein-Ali Montazeri was a prominent Iranian scholar, Islamic theologian, Shia Islamic democracy advocate, writer and human rights activist. He was one of the leaders of the Iranian Revolution in 1979.
The Iran–Iraq War was an armed conflict between Iran and Iraq lasting from September 1980 to August 1988, making it the 20th century’s longest conventional war.
At the time of the conflict, the U.N. Security Council issued statements that “chemical weapons had been used in the war.” U.N. statements never clarified that only Iraq was using chemical weapons, and according to retrospective authors “the international community remained silent as Iraq used weapons of mass destruction against Iranian[s] as well as Iraqi Kurds.” The UN Security Council did not identify Iraq as the aggressor of the war until 11 December 1991, some 12 years after Iraq invaded Iran and 16 months following Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait.
