Iraq: The state we’re in
October 15th, 2005
On the eve of the latest “tipping point,” Patrick Cockburn provides a comprehension description and analysis of the total American-British failure in Iraq: Iraq: The state we’re in. It’s one of the best summaries I’ve seen.
LEADER: When will peace return to Iraq? When will the terrifying cycle of bombings and suicide attacks abate? When will the people have food and electricity? When will they be able to walk the streets in safety? When will our sons and daughters return home? How will it all end? In this special report from Baghdad, The Independent’s Patrick Cockburn exposes the monumental series of blunders that plunged the nation into chaos - and explains why the conflict will be longer, bloodier and more profound in its consequences even than Vietnam
