Details

More than one year after the "fall of Baghdad," the reconstruction of Iraq is failing terribly. Ordinary Iraqis wait in line for basic necessities like clean water and fuel, while the number of civilians and soldiers killed escalates in tandem with the billions of US tax dollars spent. Chatterjee delivers an on-the-ground account of the occupation business, exposing private contractors as the only winners in this war. Drawing on years of research and first-hand experience in the region, including his live reporting from Iraq during the height of the siege of Fallujah, Chatterjee brings us the dilapidated hospitals, looted ministries, and guarded corporate enclaves that mark the plunderous road to America's free Iraq.

"The ultimate primer on how modern US invasion and occupation for profit is being waged. You won't learn any of this on the evening news."—Amy Goodman
