Mesopotamia's Hollywood War

Iraq High Tribunal administered an accountability process of the former Government of Iraq's senior leadership. This book shares observations and summaries of the fifteen major cases, the faces, legal proceedings and detainee life. Legal hearings within Iraqi revealed expectations of the Iraqi people were not defined by the American presence, rather were defined by the accompanying western media products. While few Iraqis had exposure to American Forces, most experienced a hurried exposure to western produced DVDs and other media creations.

Hollywood's immersion into Iraqi culture was paramount among captured detainees. Forensically speaking, American made movie products was the single most proximate possession among Iraqis categorized as a security threat. Such linkage burgeoned their fascination with connecting with the American soldier at all costs. Iraqi commoners, long buried in the defeatism of socialism under Islam discovered a brave new world anchoring their hopes and dreams into a temporal world.

Despite criticisms of the international community, the Iraq High Tribunal was a great success in the contrast of prior tribunals. Foremost, the high court proffered lustration value absorbing the tremendous anger complementing a grueling healing process.
