    Reviews:

"The Sacking of Fallujah offers a radically different and sorely needed perspective on the Iraq War. It describes the war as experienced by ordinary Iraqis rather than by foreign, occupying troops. This is historical revisionism of the very best sort." - Andrew J. Bacevich, Author of America's War's for the Greater Middle East: A Military History

"This groundbreaking work cuts through thick veils of propaganda to reveal the experiences of the victims, with depth of research and a sensitivity that is uniquely perceptive⎯and with powerful lessons for solidarity work and the struggle for 'peace with justice," not only in the tortured land of Iraq." - Noam Chomsky, Laureate Professor of Linguistics and Agnese Nelms Haury Chair at the University of Arizona
