They called themselves the Pact of Steel. They were Germany, Japan and Italy, and in 1941, they dreamed up an audacious plan to take over the world. They would drive from east to west to destroy the British Empire and then the United States. Finally, Soviet Russia would fall to them too, and the earth would belong to them, and, in particular, to Adolf Hitler, the ruler of National Socialist Germany. In the spring of 1941, when a sudden revolt broke out in Iraq, still dominated by the British since they had taken over the mandate after the First World War, the masters of the Pact of Steel decided that Iraq would be the place where Japan and Germany would join hands and commence this march to world domination.
