As a Pacifica Radio reporter, Glantz predicted catastrophe if the U.S. invaded Iraq. But in post-invasion interviews with regular Iraqis, he found wide support for the Americans. Then, in early 2004, the U.S. military unleashed an unprovoked bombing campaign on Fallujah. This report reveals that the Iraqis have suffered appalling civilian casualties; U.S. contractors have failed to supply clean water and electricity; 50% of the U.S.-trained Iraqi army refuses to fight; and a recent poll shows that 82% of Iraqis oppose our presence.
