Collateral Damage: America’s War Against Iraqi Civilians by Chris Hedges and Laila Al-Arian
Requirements: .MP3 reader, 100mb
Overview: Best-selling author and Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Chris Hedges and journalist Laila Al-Arian spent the past year interviewing over fifty veterans to expose the patterns of the occupation in Iraq. The testimonies of these soldiers–many of who remain deeply traumatized by their experiences–uncover how the very conduct of the war and occupation have turned the American forces into agents of terror for most Iraqis. Through their eyes, we learn how the mechanics of war lead to the abuse and frequent killing of innocents. They describe military convoys traveling at tremendous speeds through towns that have become trains of death. Civilians are routinely run over or shot to death. Soldiers fire upon Iraqi vehicles with impunity at checkpoints. They detail raids that leave innocent families dead in the mayhem and the late-night detentions based on shoddy intelligence that terrify women, traumatize children, and radicalize the young men caught in their dragnet. And they describe a battlefield in which troops, untrained to distinguish between combatants and civilians, are authorized to shoot whenever they feel threatened.
These soldiers have found the moral courage to speak out about the true nature of a war that has become one long, unchecked atrocity, and has given rise to the instability, sectarian violence and chaos that we witness today in Iraq.
