It’s fun, but the editing is lacking
Very interesting 4-part documentary. I watched it for free on the DW Documentary Youtube channel. That’s a German news channel that makes a lot of pretty good docs. But this one is a French doc they bought the rights for I assume. We see how Saddam Hussein takes power in Iraq via brutal means by killing all politicians who may go against him. Then it goes over all the Iraq wars.

Iran’s regime falls. Which was a US proxy government. So USA and other countries support Saddam in his wars vs. Them. Largely to push them back. Saddam uses Western chemicals for illegal chemical attacks against Kurds in Iraq. There is a huge sanction on Iraq for the war crimes. When Saddam attacks Kuwait USA and other countries beat him back pretty easily.

It’s all viewed from a French perspective when it’s possible. So the French support, French weapons, and leaders are shown quite a bit. Besides that it’s largely anti-American. George W. Bush started the Iraq war and defeated the Iraqi army very fast as they were weak after years of sanctions. UN and everyone else told USA that there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq anymore. But Bush conducted fake investigations and then used his men to lie about it all to the media and congress. But the war was not that terrible an idea – as it is presented here. Many Iraqis did seek more freedom and the doc is so anti-Saddam that his fall is presented as a great thing. The issue is that Bush hires a lot of clueless Americans who can’t even speak Arabic to create the new Iraq. And of course they fail badly. They fire over 400K Iraqi military men who protest and rebel. Soon there are battles over cities. Bush fired the Saddam people who belong to a specific group, religion, and clan. So of course they rebel and start a civil war especially as they have no job anymore. Especially oil relevant cities are attacked. Then ISIS comes in and takes over whole cities just to spread their Islam. Oil or no oil. Again largely soldiers the Americans got fired. The new Iraqi leadership USA selected is extremely corrupt so the new president fired generals and replaced them with his clan members. Hence why there is no proper leadership in the military and they just flee instead of fighting ISIS. Hence the West is used yet again. Which leads ISIS to proclaim the countries who attack ISIS as enemies which creates terrorist attacks in countries like France.

In the doc the West is made out to be largely clueless and neoconservative. The Iraqis interviewed nearly all hate USA and the West or just want them gone. They feel like Saddam would at least have held ISIS at bay and they dislike the civil wars and how their country doesn’t feel like a nation anymore. It’s a country that fell apart into Muslims clans fighting each other and USA is blamed for most of this. The reconstruction of the country is very much remembered as one of the stupidest human errors in recent times. It’s just bafflingly stupid so I understand why USA is not made out to be the good guys here. But the Iraq war itself is shown as a rather fine thing as Saddam Hussein was a psychopath.

The doc jumps from point to point which I feel is the main problem. At times it’s hard to really understand what is going on or what happened in Iraq. Because we jump from interview to interview and event to event. The interviews are modern the events are old. And they jump from country to country too. Obviously all the France stuff could have been cut out. But they needed it for their audience. So instead of just jumping from Iraq, to Iran, to USA, we have quite a few more countries and stories just thrown into the mix. This makes the pacing so fast that you lose the storyline at times. But overall I get the ideas presented here and some episodes are more clear narration wise.
