Both Iran and Iraq have strategically effective cultural and social background after the fall of the Ba'ath regime in Iraq and the withdrawal of foreigners from the country. Therefore, it is important to understand the realities about Iraq. First, this research shows that it is impossible to understand the current situations in Iraq because there is not enough information. Thus, the author tries to propose a theoretical and reasonable pattern for understanding the current realities in Iraq by analyzing the Iraqi Shiite view on the country. The main methodology in the research is ethnography and interview and observation were used for collecting the valid and empirical information. This research attempts to design a theoretical and independent pattern by which the Iraq's social realities are understood with the help of some current sociological theories which are often related to the Parsons' theoretical discussions.
