Your Call 021009 What do we need to know about Iraq?

As Iraq moves through a critical phase, what do we need to know? On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation with Professor Nadje Al-Ali, author of What Kind of Liberation? Women and the Occupation of Iraq, and Dahr Jamail, a Bay Area independent journalist who recently returned to Baghdad. With the recent election described as a success by Washington, what is daily life like in Iraq? How have the lives of women been affected by so many dead and imprisoned Iraqi men? And what's the status of U.S. troop withdrawal? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:
Nadje Al-Ali, director of the Gender Studies Centre at SOAS, University of London.

Dahr Jamail, an independent journalist
