Economic and political factors for terrorist growth in the Iraqi environment

Abstract

Terrorism is an organized crime prohibited by Sharia and the law, and there are various motivations behind its emergence. Furthermore, terrorism has negative effects on all life aspects. Terrorist groups have exploited the security situation, chaos, destruction and political competition for power in Iraq after 2003 in order to penetrate into the Iraqi cities and governorates and even occupy and make them a theater for military operations. This has destroyed and stolen many industrial companies and enterprises that were attracting thousands of workers in addition to the destruction of other economic sectors that has debilitated the Iraqi economy and made the task of reconstruction difficult.

The American occupation of Iraq has given the terrorists of different nationalities access to Iraq to settle their accounts with America on one hand and eliminate Iraq as an independent state, as Iraq became, after the occupation, a center for settling political accounts and an arena for acts of violence and criminality.

2. The political powers that hold power is neglecting Iraqi nation’s suffering from poverty, unemployment, etc. This was one reason for recruiting some of them for terrorist acts.

3. Terrorism has destroyed the Iraqi economy's infrastructure which was reflected negatively on the human situation in Iraq.

4. The state suffers from its inability to secure borders which has given terrorists the chance to make the Iraqi people a victim of their criminal plans.

5. Building an efficient military command and a combat-skilled army, a national government is far from sectarian quota. And spread spirit of tolerance and love within society may be a cause of the security stability that has become a dream for the Iraqi people for years.
