No End In Sight
Documentary
The first film of its kind to chronicle
the reasons behind Iraq's descent into guerilla war, warlord rule, criminality and anarchy, NO END IN SIGHT is a jaw-dropping, insider's
tale of wholesale incompetence, recklessness and venality. Based on over
200 hours of footage, the film provides a candid retelling of the events
following the fall of Baghdad in 2003 by high ranking officials such as
former Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage, Ambassador Barbara Bodine
(in charge of Baghdad during the Spring of 2003), Lawrence Wilkerson, former
Chief of Staff to Colin Powell, and General Jay Garner (in charge of the
occupation of Iraq through May 2003) as well as Iraqi civilians, American
soldiers, and prominent analysts.
NO END IN SIGHT examines the manner
in which the principal errors of U.S. policy - the use of insufficient troop levels, allowing the looting of Baghdad, the purging of professionals from the Iraqi government, and the disbanding of the Iraqi military - largely created the insurgency and chaos that engulf Iraq today. How did a group of men with little or no military experience, knowledge of the Arab world or personal experience in Iraq come to make such flagrantly debilitating decisions? NO END IN SIGHT dissects the people, issues and facts behind the Bush Administration's
decisions and their consequences on the ground to provide a powerful
look into how arrogance and ignorance turned a military victory into
a seemingly endless and deepening nightmare of a war.
