Battle for Baghdad (2007)

"Four years after the invasion of Iraq, American troops battle it out with insurgents on Haifa Street in downtown Baghdad … paying the price for four years of military and political miscalculations.

In a last desperate gamble to save what many see as a losing war, a ‘surge' of over 25,000 extra troops are being rushed to Baghdad … Lose the Battle for Baghdad, and you lose Iraq.

This is the story of what went wrong … how America got trapped on these streets…as told by some of the top commanders in the war and the New York Times correspondents who are covering it"

seppl, you lost me with ; 'you sir killed vietnamese people that didnt have anything to do with the US' Perhaps English is not your first language. Prose aside, I'm not sure if you are aware, but there was a shooting war going on. That usually entails the belligerents trying their hardest to kill each other. If war veterans are murderers we would need a lot more prisons to hold these 'murderers' Try thinking before typing next time kiddo

Being an Air Force veteran from the Vietnam era, I see the same mistakes being made by politicians ignoring the military needs and suggestions. I love to blame democrats, but the republicans can share in their stupidity as well. Overall, I'd rather we kill terrorist's on their soil, than fighting them in US city streets. But, it could still come to that one day, I just hope we can keep them in the middle east and off American soil.
