After Iraq threatened international safety during Desert Storm, many sanctions have been placed on Iraq by the United States. Weather or not these sanctions are beneficial or not is a debatable question. Although I feel these sanctions are necessary, they are also not beneficial in many aspects. To fully analyze this controversy, an understanding of the history, sanctions and it's effects, and possible restorations are needed. Due to the prevalence of this topic, many reputable historians and critics have voiced their opinions in journals and newspapers for years. This issue still exists and must be dealt with in the next few years. The future of this complex problem is still in question due to the many factors which are involved. Iraq has been a "chronically troubled part of the world" (Gross,203) for the last decade. Iraq, Kuwait and Saudia Arabia are the leading oil countries in the world. Being that oil is an expensive and valuable product, there has been a lot of trauma during the last fifteen years. This is mostly due to the fact that wherever there is money, there is greed and war. Operation Desert Storm was so crucial because of the sophisticated technology which was used to end the war i
These searches of Iraq excluded "presidential sites", which were defined buildings used by government officials. However, during January of 1998, U.S. and other important officials began to worry that illegal warfare construction could possibly be occurring in these unseen presidential sites. For this reason, the U.S. announced that this was an "intolerable violation of the cease - fire resolution" (Zunes, 90) However, Iraq saw this change in policy as an invasion of their sovereign rights. Iraq feared this entrance to presidential sites, due to the extremely strong opposition of Saddam by the U.S., which could leave both Saddam and top officials vulnerable to murder. One month later, Iraq and America reached an agreement that only UN officials could enter due to the unique status of these specific sites (Zunes, 89 - 92) The UN and U.S. also included the no - fly zones in their containment policy. Iraq is not allowed to fly or trade by the North or South borders. T! imes even blamed on Iran, they show Saddam's ruthless personality and backward morals, which resurfaced a few years later. hese borders are watched by a military presence. The purpose of this was to control their incoming flow of money: After U.S. forces ended Desert Storm, the containment policy was devised and put into effect. The containment policy was not designed to resolve Iraq problems, but rather to just stabilize them. The main objective was, as the title of the policy implies, to contain Saddam. It also was made to keep Iraq to its minimum needs, so that they did not have excess money that could lead to reconstruction of weapons. In April of 1991, the Security Council designed the cease - fire resolution, in which they were determined to get rid of all weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. This essential policy controlled the mass destructive weapons that were in Iraq.
