About this listen

The Iran-Iraq War was a conflict that took place between 1980 and 1988 and was fueled by religious and political differences. Iran, which is predominantly Shia, had recently undergone a Shia revolution that sought to spread its message and influence across the predominantly Sunni Arab world. This threatened the domestic security of the Sunni-led Baath party in Iraq, and the two countries eventually went to war.
