ITEM OVERVIEW
A first-hand view of the war in Iraq, The Freedom provides a fearless and unsanitized look at how the war is unfolding. In the finest traditions of on the ground war reportage, Parenti talks to Fedayeen fighters; the underage prostitutes who service US soldiers and are hunted by religious vigilantes; the freshly minted MBAs who run the Coalition Provisional Authority's projects on privatization; the somnambulant American press corps and its fierce counterparts from al Jazeera and al Arabia; and US troops, the unworldly, working class kids left holding the bag, forced to die for a war many of them don't support.
"The perfect guide through occupied Iraq: honest, compassionate, and pissed off." —Naomi Klein
