Beskrivelse
The United States launched an international war on terrorism in response to the September 11, 2001, terror attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. As a result, young people are bombarded with images of Saddam Hussein, Osama bin Laden, battles taking place in Iraq and Afghanistan, and prisoners of war held in Guantanamo Bay. Using related images set in a magazine-like design, this series examines a number of developing events related to the war on terrorism, reflecting the latest, most up-to-date information available. With lively, straightforward writing and dramatic images from the front, these books offer a gripping narrative to complement and enhance today's headlines. This important book examines the reasons for the U.S.-led coalition's presence in Iraq, describing the post-war reconstruction efforts and the reaction to the U.S. presence and rebuilding. Written in an easy-to-read style it looks at the Iraqi interim government, the insurgent; behind the nation-building resistance, and the outlook for establishing a government run by the citizens of Iraq. Looking at both the support for and opposition to the U.S. plan for a democratic Iraq, this book offers up-to-the-minute information on this historically important period.
