Article Abstract:
Tensions between Iran and Iraq continue, as evidenced by the bombing of alleged dissident Iranian bases in Iraq by Iran on May 25, 1993. Unresolved differences are still apparent after the Iran-Iraq and Persian Gulf Wars. One goal that may unite them is their mutual hatred of the US.
