Iraqi Insurgents

This important book examines the reasons for the U.S.-led coalition’s presence in Iraq, describing the post-war reconstruction efforts and the reaction to the U.S. presence and rebuilding. Written in an easy-to-read style, it looks at the Iraqi interim government, the insurgents behind the nation-building resistance, and the outlook for establishing a government run by the citizens of Iraq. Looking at both the support for and opposition to the U.S. plan for a democratic Iraq, this book offers up-to-the-minute information on this historically important period.
