Iran-Iraq War
SLIDESHOW

War between Iran and Iraq , lasting from 1980 to 1988.
The background for the war was disagreements on the borderline between the two countries, stemming back to 1971, when Iran occupied a couple of Iraqi islands in the Persian Gulf near the outlet of Shatt El Arab . Iraq was also objecting the Islamist propaganda that was transmitted from Iran to Iraq, and Iraq's government feared that there could be a revolution among the Iraqi Shi'is in the south. In 1980 Iraq expected that Iran was weak after the Iranian Revolution, so that Iraq would face little resistance when occupying Iranian territory.
Saddam Hussein
's ambitious plans for developing Iraq to a halt.
During the war Iraq enlarged its military forces from 250,000 to 1,250,000, and adjusted the infrastrucutre of the country to the needs of the military. To a large degree, was this the precondition for the next war: the invasion of Kuwait and the following attack from the international forces. HISTORY
Settlement on frontiers between Iran and Iraq that involved increased territory for Iran compared to the borders prior to 1971.

W ar and A nti- W ar F ilms
often acknowledge the horror and heartbreak of war, letting the actual combat fighting or conflict (against nations or humankind) provide the primary plot or background for the action of the film. Typical elements in the action-oriented war plots include POW camp experiences and escapes, submarine warfare, espionage, personal heroism, "war is hell" brutalities, air dogfights, tough trench/infantry experiences, or male-bonding buddy adventures during wartime. Themes explored in war films include combat, survivor and escape stories, tales of gallant sacrifice and struggle, studies of the futility and inhumanity of battle, the effects of war on society, and intelligent and profound explorations of the moral and human issues. Some war films do balance the soul-searching, tragic consequences and inner turmoil of combatants or characters with action-packed, dramatic spectacles, enthusiastically illustrating the excitement and turmoil of warfare. And some 'war' films concentrate on the homefront rather than on the conflict at the military war-front. But many of them provide decisive criticism of senseless warfare. War films have often been used as 'flag-waving' propaganda to inspire national pride and morale, and to display the nobility of one's own forces while harshly displaying and criticizing the villainy of the enemy, especially during war or in post-war periods. Jingoistic-type war films usually do not represent war realistically in their support of nationalistic interests, while avoiding the reality of the horrors of war. The good guys are portrayed as clashing against the bad guys (often with stereotyped labels such as 'krauts,' 'commies,' 'Huns,' or 'nips'). These revisionistic, politically-correct and historically inaccurate films, in such diverse examples as

Market Harborough
An East Midlands Town in the First World War
Women's Role in the War It has been disappointing that in all the time I have been researching the town in World War 1 I have found very little information about women at the time. It seems that little has survived in family collections and I have found few documents concerning them. Yet there must have been some girls from Market Harborough who became nurses or took other war-related jobs. Some girls surely must have taken the opportunity the war provided to escape the close confines of a little town and its close and rather rigid society. One family gave me a photograph of a nurse - her name was Carrie Martin - but they knew nothing about her. To judge by the inscription on the picture she might simply have been a nurse in a hospital where a man from the town was being treated, or she might have been a family friend. Who knows? I've reproduced the photograph here because it is a nice picture. Carrie Martin
