Arvandrud narrative and Iraqi greed to Khuzestan/The armed forces were not surprised by the Iraqi invasion of Iraq

The imposed Iran-Iraq war as one of the longest wars of the present age in calendar submission to another despite all of its different dimensions in the case still parts with ambiguity and questions facing.

One of the topics that so far but if the reasons against it, many located in the beginning of the Iran-Iraq war and the armed forces are war Iran was predictable or not.

The answers to these questions in La to Lai conversation with armored headquarters Brig. Sayed AboTorabi – that at the time of the beginning of the war in the South of the country and later Commander of the Chief of the second pillar of the South anchor was used to search.

The veteran Army soldier in his file after completing the war of intelligence group command of the Army ground forces and Deputy of the information for this force was responsible for such questions we answered.

Defapress: as you know the imposed Iran-Iraq war in the years before the revolution's victory means Arvand River adventure and the claim of Iraq towards the river. Even the depth of the animosity could also contract 1975 Government of Iraq toward Iran. Please give an explanation in this regard.

According to the contract between the Ottoman Government and 1913 in the current aslambl and Constantine was then signed to the eastern half of the current River Arvand had been entrusted. On the same basis as a part of the Ottoman territory of Iraq came to this Ottoman to disposal.

When Iraqis signed the 1975 contract; and regret were mghmom, because that's part of their vital lifeline means sometimes sht with our half of this premise and strongly felt.

Defapress: Iraq of what independent identity and history of your Ottoman why keeper contracts for Iran knew?

 After the first world war, that is, after the year 1921 ad Ottoman figure and breakdown by the country of Iraq, Britain. The Government of Iraq, in the region of Mesopotamia or between these three provinces with Rudan County, province of Basra province, the middle and the base.

This is the State after the formation of the Ottoman rule in the region, their heir to Mesopotamia. It was natural to say this is the land of the long Ottoman and had for me. So the Ottoman Iraq contracts should also be adherents to the foot. Mfahomsh this is a 1913 agreement should be fixed instead of himself.

Defense press: but Iran did not accept the deal?

Exactly. This contract as Iran was not acceptable so that on 1968 by the time Senate abolishes the aforesaid contract announced and the Iran-Iraq border line talog in Arvand Rud.

This action led to calls to the Iraqi threat in a way that was threatened that if Iranian ships in the Arvand River, it's the ball. On 2 may, Iran practically line 48 talog in Arvand River and the Executive by passing ships Avicenna along with a combat carrier; their threats Iraq aside and recognize talog line.

Defapress: recognized. How was that to negotiation and signing of the contract?

 Since the passage of the ship Avicenna virtually a contract line was growing in the Arvand talog Executive but was mired to inspire negotiation and officially signed the contract in this field. As a result, with the support of the Kurds in Iraq and the pressure that they Mola mostafa Barzani and the Central Government, they will enter Iraq to prevent the Kurdistan of being their sand is forced to attend at the foot of.

Accordingly, with the mediation of President Al Jazeera a joint meeting between Iran and Iraq to solve the dispute, held that ultimately got the Arvand would sign the contract line based talog.

On the same date of the head of the Iranian Government means King in conference Korean company was also Saddam's OPEC there was the presence of a mediator "with the measures the Government of reconciliation" between two Bomdin is established.

Query: Defense contract signed between Iran and Iraq have what was material and provisions? This contract has four article. In article 1 of this agreement on the basis of a land border between the two countries, Iran and the Ottoman Empire 1913 contract was set up. According to article II of the river between the border of Iran and Iraq was determined on the basis of the talog in conditions that the blue border and a half kilometers, 426 River with Iraq that 91.1 km to the Arvand River.

In article III of the non-interference of each other's internal affairs, the two countries stressed. According to this article, Iraq called on Iran to stop their support of Kurds to return to northern Iraq.

Finally, in the fourth paragraph of this agreement was that the emphasis of the definitive contract signed, non-permanent and cannot be changed.

 Defense so it can be said that the contract with Iraq is an important part of its territory, and more benefits than the Arvand River.

This issue can be found of Saddam's remarks after the signing of the contract on arrival to Gaza. Saddam facing the Iraqi radio and television camera, and says, "this was a courageous action against the decomposition of the homeland." That is, if we do this we will not parse homeland which means bone in the throat.

Defapress: some of the documents showed that Iraq after 1975 practically contract start to boost their combat unit. This thread is about observation? And that the last years of the life of the imperial regime in Iran on this issue was impact or not?

On 15 may, the Iraqi Government in meeting 54 formations and was decided to be on the cover of their proximity, military relay until the proper time after missing half of the around rood.

From that day onwards to purchase weapons and equipment to Iraq to reinforce the Army aviation, marine and terrestrial parts of the heavily action. This point should be pointed out that at a time when we've had signed a contract with them, we can gather the two Iraqi Armored Division Unit and four infantry division but it was after five years of war with Iran, which entered the country from 29 independent Brigade and Division 12.

This shows that your Iraq is ready to enter the heavily military phase up to the eastern half of the Arvand River, taking back.

While the revolution in Iran, was set to close its result days, the momentum of Iraq to strengthen its military comes to color and newer.

8sep 1976that martial law was declared in Iran gradually the opposition against the King to form an open system and its use in Iraq of Iran's internal developments. Iraqis are revolution and coup d ' état and specialist with the consequences of it are well familiar. They knew when a devastating loss for the coup or revolution between the people and authorities of a number of the side.

The Iraqi Government benefited from the space created and to believe that the outbreak of the revolution, and its victory in Iran can be the most golden opportunity bittern and had to take on the position of the interlock casts created a military structure in the eastern half of the country in order to use the taking back ARV.

This topic is also undeniable that revolutionary change in any organization in the army air force and ground.

Defapress Do you have the same issue that caused the demand to go to the eastern half of Arvand River and a new discussion in the name Khuzestan from Iran, separating the Iraqi campaign? Let me discuss in this section to read more. Practically with the political process created in Iran, Iraq asked for the realization of the necessary substrates to provide unwanted face. Iran is in sight, the Iraqi Government weaker than it was seen that his resistance against any invasion.

 

Accordingly, Iraq declared that in these conditions we just do not want the eastern half of the Arvand River, but we'll take Khuzestan. In this context the building scene is also on the agenda, and on the Arab musicians together to make the 59-year history of Arab musicians in April said that during a review conducted on the basis of documents, Khuzestan Province belonging to the Ottoman and Persian force occupied it And now the Ottoman heir in Khuzestan Province of Iran and Iraq should it return to Iraq.

Iraq's Baath party, a Charter which includes 12 article. Article 7 of the Charter explicitly declares that Iraq and khuzistan belongs to must return to the father of the Arabs. So this could not be more explicit claims of Khuzestan.

There's a lot of sources that this is a more democratic Iraq. A Kuwaiti newspaper on   5AP 1979 wrote Iraq will be ready to invade Khuzestan and it separates from the Iranian soil. Of course this map of Iraq and Khuzestan color print map and his TV. The majority of Iraqis who came to Iran, this was their map. This map is now in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs there.

After this the Egyptian Secretary of war in a book aboghzalah wrote that Iraq was at war with Iran three objectives: the occupation of Khuzestan Province, the Iranian Government, the Iranian resistance.

Defapress: you mentioned that with all this information easily in the military analysis was a big risk on the borders of the country felt did the army and the military forces had not identified this threat?

With respect to the cross-border movement of Iraqi army that was necessary to view the notification to the State authorities was carried out but the results desired in this field could not be created. I, as the army land force intelligence officer in the southern region and hence the work in relation to Iraq. Therefore, one of those who helped my own action in this regard.

The collection of headlines from Iraq, however, either through public and media either through news collected and hidden in a package in the first half of the year 59 by Hojjatoleslam "warmongers" which at the time was Chairman of the political and ideological division 92 was delivered to Imam documents to Banisadr.

Bani Sadr will appeal for action based on the hierarchy. We will mobilize the public khostaman command. Exactly like what had happened to Paveh. We had done his coordination is that if such a command was issued to troops there and we go on the border area. Our plan was to block the border plan. Rather than come inside Iraq and we are inside the country with her ' fight to keep him behind the line. This was a good plan and layout in less time to reach because it was done due to the geographical conditions of the area it is doable. Leading up to our late answer. 7SEP 1979 the answer that came to estimate what you need.

The answer had come very late and was practically the last work of work. So in addition to the warmongers who he will inform me and the second joint force headquarters.

In a November memo to 58 land force defense plan was communicated to the Iraqi procurement scheme against the abouzar in land force based on the same guidelines prepared and issued.

Defapress: with this description so our military forces on the subject of war have not surpising?. All of the 92 Division detachment forces and on 26 April, 1979 were deployed in the border strip. That is, the threat of new Division. Of course, this was the land forces command Division to expand and take seriously the threat of ground forces. So the authorities knew of Iraq's army will attack and someone pleasantly surprised. The country's leading authorities on the

Practically on the subject of war have said the troops suffered serious, but not surprising the authorities find out because of the threat of surprising and encountered a flurry in this section.
