The ’Ghost of Anbar’ - also known as Abu Risha, the man behind the US success story in Iraq’s Anbar province, was brutally murdered in a roadside bomb this week.
As a result, People & Power revisit ’Anbar’s Ghost’ which was shot just weeks before his death.

Greenspan even advised Bush that "taking Saddam Hussein out was essential" to protect oil supplies.

"....let us sit upon the ground and talk about the death of kings"...Shakespeare
So the US invades and occupies Iraq, and then Bush makes the most insensitive statement ever uttered by a tyrant/dictator: "The Iraqi people should be grateful to us for all we’ve done for their country" !!!
We’ve wiped their homes,farms,schools, hospitals,mosques and streets clean with our superbombers, failed to stop looting and raiding of weapons storehouses, and participated in greedy corruption while (…)
