Iran-Iraq war from Balance of Power point of view

Iran''s Islamic Revolution because of issuing new ideas، managed to have a considerable impact on its surrounding environment. regional and Int''l negative and destructive reactions to Iran''s Islamic Revolution depicts its meta natural nature in the best way among which was Iraqi invasion to Iran as a substitute war on behalf of both regional and Int''l states. Based on this idea، to shed light on this issue، writers try to answer the following question: Why was Iraqi invasion to Iran a beginning and continuation with the protection of regional and meta-regional states as well as silence and inaction of Int''l community? In other words، what factors justify Iraqi invasion to Iran as well as an unwritten alliance of both regional and meta- regional states to protect Iraqi regime? Our hypothesis is: «Due to enjoying a very powerful idea of political Islam as well as the fact that Iraqi community، in particular and the whole region in general، were vulnerable to political Islamic ideas which provided a ground for its acceptance among Muslim communities، Islamic political idea could distort the power balance between Iran and Iraq from one side and other aspects of power distribution in regional and meta-regional states from the other side. Applying a combination of historicalanalytical method، this paper tries to verify above-gone issues.
