Product Description: "Confronting Iraq: Conflict and Hope," winner of the Gold Special Jury Award for Best Feature Documentary at WorldFest Houston, was directed by Roger Aronoff and written by Roger Aronoff and Jack Harris. This powerful documentary attempts to set the record straight and to examine some of the big issues related to this war. Did the U.S. really act unilaterally, motivated by greed and politics, in an unnecessary war? Or is it a just and necessary war - part of a larger war - against the unrelenting forces of radical Islam? Was Saddam Hussein's regime bent on developing and proliferating Weapons of Mass Destruction? Or had he destroyed them all after the first Gulf War? Did the Iraqi government have ongoing relations with Osama bin Laden's terrorist organization, al Qaeda, among others, or is this a pretext dreamed up in Crawford Texas to justify going to war? The West is engaged, whether it likes it or not, in a clash of civilizations, in a war it never sought. It is unlike any war in our history. How have the various participants Confronted Iraq. The Bush administration? The Clinton administration? The media? The intellectuals and pundits? The Leftist opposition? Michael Moore? "Confronting Iraq: Conflict and Hope" tackles these complex issues, through dramatic footage and insightful interviews, in a thought provoking, powerful, and at times humorous and ironic manner.
The truth shall set you free This is an outstanding film. A refreshing, sober look at what led up to our campaigns in Afghanistan and Iraq. It also gives insight to media spin and how that helps fuel the anti Bush, anti war movement. America really needs to hear truth in order to stop all the hate for our decision to show strength against known enemies. Have we forgotten an act of war was declared on us?? See this film!!
