"Confronting Iraq" is a powerful new documentary produced by Roger Aronoff, to attempt 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?
How have the various participants Confronted Iraq. This documentary tackles these complex issues, through dramatic footage and insightful interviews, in a thought provoking, powerful, and at times humorous and ironic manner.
Confronting Iraq features interviews with, among others, the following individuals:
- James Woolsey - former CIA director
- Bernard Kerik - former New York City Police Commissioner
- Stephen Hayes - reporter for The Weekly Standard and author of The Connection.
- Tim Trevan - former UN weapons inspector
