520 $aIn early 2003., Greg Mitchell was one of the few mainstream journalists to seriously question the stated reasons for invading Iraq. In the years since, he has repeatedly challenged the media to probe the conduct of the war and its toll on our troops. Now, after five years of war, he traces the conflict- from the "run-up" to the "surge"--And the media's coverage of it in this important collection of commentaries which explore not only how we got into the war in Iraq, but why we just can't seem to get out.-- Book Jacket.
