Hussein Al-Hindawi: Iraq Monarchy Crisis Due to Political Distortion
The Iraqi writer and thinker Hussein Al Hindawi, Assistant Secretary-General of the Arab League, stated that many of the problems that emerged in Iraq after 2003 have deep-rooted historical origins extending back to the monarchy period. During that time, the power structure was unbalanced and failed to represent the country's diverse national and sectarian groups. He explained that dominance was held by individuals and officers linked to the Arab nationalist project, which contributed to political tensions dating back to the 1930s. Among these events was Bakhit Sidqi’s coup in 1936, which he considers the first military coup in the Arab world and a significant episode in Iraq’s ongoing power struggles. He emphasized that in order to understand Iraq’s contemporary crises, one must return to the roots of the state's founding and the political system of that era, rather than viewing the events of 2003 solely as the cause of current issues.
