Working Concept Plan
The experience this room is designed to create
One million dead. Eight years of trench warfare, chemical weapons, and human wave assaults in a war that ends exactly where it began — with the same borders and the same regimes. The conflict destabilizes the Gulf, empowers extremism on both sides, and sets the stage for every Middle Eastern crisis that follows.
Present Iran–Iraq War with historical clarity, human dignity, and enough context to understand causes, choices, consequences, and contested memory.
