This blog is now a book
This blog is now a book with the title
"Iraqi Letters: 2004-2006" available from Amazon.
This is what it says on the back cover:
The US invasion of Iraq in 2003 will be seen in the future
as a turning point in the history of Iraq and the surrounding countries in the
twenty-first century.
This book was written by an Iraqi with an eye for the
consequences of that adventure by the United States driven by a variety of
different forces within the States and elsewhere. It also unleashed a wide
range of other forces. It addresses a number of issues relating to that event:
·
The performance of the US
Administration and army in Iraq and the
numerous mistakes or misdeeds
committed by both
·
How Iraq itself and the
different conflicts and forces operating in Iraq at the time were portrayed by the mass media
·
The reasons the US invaded
Iraq
·
The American people
·
Whether there were any
solutions to that mess
