This paper is an assessment of the political consequences of Iran-Iraq war within the framework of "target-result" theory. The paper also tests the theory of "war without a win".

Data for this study has come from archival records, library resources, and interview with war commanders. Theoretical framework of the study is based on the "win-loss" theory of HP-Callahan which upholds two concepts, namely victory and failure. The theory states that as long as a nation maintains is military, political and psychological power, it can continue the war.

The adoption of the UN Security Council Resolution no. 598 in July 27, 1988, provided the basis for ending the war. It led to the refutation of the claim that Iran seeks war while Iraq demands peace. Later developments in the region proved that Iran has attained its political goals in war against Iraq. With the full support of its people, the government managed to defend the integrity of the country, and consolidate its military with revolutionary-religious orientation.  Whereas the Iraqi government had no achievement. But to increase its attachment to economic issues and the purchase of military weaponry from world powers.
