Abstract
This article focuses on a number of antimonies that arose during the occupation of Iraq. The genesis of these antimonies was three fold: the absence of a legal foundation for the use of force against Iraq, the unwillingness of pro-Ba'ath elements to surrender to Coalition forces even after the collapse of their government, and the hostility of Iraqis from across the religious and ideological spectrum to foreign occupation.
