A chronicle offering a rare window into the international perception of the Iraq War, presented by Al Jazeera, the Arab world's most popular news outlet. It has drawn sharp criticism from cabinet members and Pentagon officials for reporting with a pro-Iraqi bias and has been strongly condemned for frequently airing civilian casualties along with footage of American POWs. The channel has revealed—and continues to reveal—the aspects of the Iraq War that the Bush administration did not want the world to see.
