Collateral Damage

"Collateral Damage," by Chris Hedges and Laila Al-Arian, features interviews with Iraqi war veterans that provide a revealing look into the realities of the occupation and its impact on Iraqi civilians. The audiobook explores how military operations, such as checkpoints, raids, and convoys, have contributed to widespread violence and instability. Through these testimonials, the authors examine the consequences of military conduct on the local population and how it has influenced the broader insurgency and sectarian conflict.
