The Iraq War

The reasoning for the Iraq War has been a hotly debated, contentious issue since the Bush administration began pressing for military intervention in Iraq in 2001. The U.S. is still embroiled in complicated international politics with Iraq, including Donald Trump naming Iraq as one of the countries placed under a travel ban. While facts and figures can be compiled to paint an informative picture, this book does something more meaningful; it shares personal first-hand stories of people involved in all sides of the Iraq War and its impact thereafter. Thura al-Windawi describes how civilians prepared for war. Hannah Allam describes visiting a friend in war-torn Iraq. Colby Buzzell shared details of everyday life of Iraq war veterans. George W. Bush explains his reasons for war. Robert Greenwald explains the madness of war profiteering. These and other compelling essays will leave an unforgettable impression on your readers.
