Shock and awe. Mission accomplished. Abu Ghraib. Saddam Hussein's capture. Nonexistent WMDs. The drama of the Iraq War has unfolded with twists and turns that have reshaped our interpretation of the conflict over time. But how will it ultimately be remembered? What will the contemporary media and the official government record tell historians looking for answers about the war?
Thomas R. Mockaitis, PhD, is professor of history at DePaul University in Chicago.
