The American Occupation of Iraq.

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.
