Thunder Run on Baghdad

Season 1
By counterbalancing the official media scenario put forward by the Americans, this documentary provides an understanding of how, from an easy war in the face of a depleted country, the United States found themselves entangled in a civilian insurrection led by a disillusioned people, who they did not even attempt to understand and who they drove to revolt.

    The Iraqis wait, divided between hope and fear. Members of the military attempt to save face, knowing that their equipment, which dates at best from the early 1970s, will not weigh heavily against the five hundred armored tanks and seventy thousand men who are equipped with the very latest technology.
