8vo. 2 vols. 27, (3) pp. 46, (2) pp. Arabic text. With one colour map at the rear of volume I. Original printed wrappers, stapled. First edition. Two rare pamphlets published by the Iraqi government, opposing the independence of Kuwait. The first pamphlet outlines Kuwait's historical connection to Iraq and analyses its "imperial…ist relations" with Britain. The second one prints the minutes of the Political Affairs Committee of the Arab League, which met in Cairo on 20 July 1961 to consider Kuwait's request to join the League. - Kuwait emerged as an independent state in June 1961, after sixty-two years as a British protectorate. With a new constitution, it held its first parliamentary elections in 1963, thereby becoming the first Arab state in the Gulf to establish a parliament. Such political developments, married with growing wealth and advances in health care, culture and finance, helped to make Kuwait the most prosperous state in the Arabian Peninsula. - The Iraqi government argued that the move toward independence was a continuation of Kuwait's relationship with Britain, albeit under a new guise. Furthermore, they felt that the historical links between Iraq and Kuwait entitled the former to control over the latter and, one suspects, a share of its growing wealth. This position, partly detailed in the pamphlet, led to a point of crisis, with Iraq threatening invasion. To the relief of Kuwait, the Iraqis were eventually deterred by the Arab League's promise of military opposition. - Rare: LibraryHub locates one copy in the UK at the British Library; OCLC locates copies in Harvard, the University of New York, Toronto, Stanford, Princeton and the NYU Abu Dhabi as the only holding institution in the Middle East. - Wrappers slightly duststained and creased. Small marginal tears to wrappers of volume I. Otherwise very well preserved. - OCLC 219629380 and 79363897.

First and only edition and printing, an uncommon ephemeral propaganda piece, published in two parts in Arabic, paving the way for the unrealized annexation of Kuwait by Iraq during the Kuwait Crisis of 1961. The Kuwait Crisis was sparked following the granting of independence to Kuwait by the United Kingdom. Following the Britis…h withdrawal, Iraq, headed by Brigadier Abd al-Karim Qasim, announced its refusal to recognize Kuwaiti independence, threatening to subsume the emirate into Iraq. These two pamphlets were produced and distributed by the Iraqi Ministry of Foreign Affairs to make the case for the annexation of Kuwait by Iraq, describing the granting of independence as illegal and invalid. The first argues that Kuwait was historically part of the governorate of Basra. Britain is characterized as a colonial power whose support for Kuwaiti independence is motivated by geopolitical self-interest, while it is argued that the Shaykh of Kuwait did not have the authority to negotiate over matters of self-governance. The second is a response to the meeting of the Arab League in Cairo on 20 July 1961, at which the majority of member states voted to accept Kuwait as an independent nation. It contains a transcript of the meeting, designed to correct "errors" which had been published by the Egyptian newspaper al-Ahram. 2 vols, octavo. Full-page colour-printed map. Wire-stitched in original wrappers. Marker marginalia in vol. II. Wrappers creased and slightly soiled, minor loss at spine where stapled (vol. I), minor skinning of front wrapper (vol. II), upper left corner of title in vol. I restored, a few marginal tears not affecting text. A good copy.

The Kuwait Crisis was sparked following the granting of independence to Kuwait by the British. Following the British withdr…awal, the Iraqi regime, headed by Brigadier Abd al-Karim Qasim, announced its refusal to recognize Kuwaiti independence, threatening to subsume the emirate into Iraq. This pamphlet was produced and distributed by the Iraqi Ministry of Foreign Affairs to make the case for the annexation of Kuwait by Iraq, describing the granting of independence as illegal and invalid. The British responded to Iraqi threats by sending troops to protect Kuwait from Iraq, precipitating a standoff in the Gulf that lasted until Iraq recognized Kuwaiti independence in 1963. In spite of the successful maintenance of Kuwaiti independence, the British remained convinced of the Iraqi threat to the emirate, and the crisis saw a marked increase in the British military presence in the Gulf up to the eventual withdrawal in 1971. Octavo, 30 pp. Full-page colour map. Wire-stitched in the original printed wrappers. A little rubbed and soiled on the wrappers, staples a touch rusted, but overall very good.
