Books like Winter soldier, Iraq and Afghanistan by Iraq Veterans Against the War.


In the spring of 2008, inspired by the Vietnam-era Winter Soldier hearings, Iraq Veterans Against the War gathered outside Washington, D.C., to testify to atrocities they personally committed or witnessed while deployed in the occupations of Afghanistan and Iraq. The book consolidates the powerful words, images, and documents from this historic event, illustrating how the collective testimony of dozens of veterans demonstrates that well-publicized cases of American brutality, such as the Abu Ghraib scandal, are not isolated incidents perpetrated by a few bad apples but rather the logical outcome of U.S. foreign policy.
