The Wire

This week marked the second anniversary of the US invasion of Iraq. Since then, some members of the coalition have dropped out, the newly elected parliament can’t decide on a government and attacks by insurgents are still taking many victims. Author and journalist Rahul Mahajan gave us his assessment of the current climate in Iraq. Jonathan Lucraft also spoke to James Hollander, a translator who’s been working with the family of Spanish cameraman Jose Couso, who was killed by a US tank as it rolled into Baghdad at the start of the war. Couso’s family is now in the US demanding justice.
