About me / Bio:
'Abd al-Ilah was a cousin and brother-in-law of King Ghazi of the Hashemite Kingdom of Iraq and was regent for his nephew King Faisal II, from 4 April 1939 to 23 May 1953, when Faisal came of age. He also held the title of Crown Prince of Iraq from 1943. He was born in Ta'if in 1913 to a Baghdadi Jewish family. He graduated from the Royal Military College, Sandhurst and served in the Iraqi army. He was loyal to the throne and supported the Allies during World War II. In 1941, he was deposed briefly by a pro-German coup led by Rashid Ali al-Gaylani, but he returned to power with British assistance. He pursued a policy of moderate Iraqi nationalism and maintained close ties with the West. He also advocated for Arab unity and supported the Hashemite dynasty in Iraq and Jordan. He was killed along with the rest of the Iraqi royal family in the 14 July Revolution in 1958 that ended the Hashemite monarchy in Iraq. His body was mutilated, dragged across the streets of Baghdad, and eventually burnt. He is considered one of the most prominent figures in modern Iraqi history and a symbol of Iraqi nationalism.
