Espejismo en el desierto: las fallas en la primera fase de la intervención estadounidense en Irak

the u.s. intervention in iraq since 2003 is one of their last challenges in its foreign policy. under a strong unilateralism and without un approval g.w. bush administration decided to invade a key player in the balance of power in the middle east. in its fight against international terrorism, the outcomes are adverse: growth of the insurgency and fundamentalism, administrative failures in the reconstruction (orha and cpa), and military actions against civilians in an irregular conflict. these are factors that account of a failed american policy.
