In this video letter to the editor, Charles Ferguson, director of the acclaimed documentary No End in Sight, responds to Paul Bremer's September 6 op-ed, How I Didn’t Dismantle Iraq’s Army. If you haven't seen No End in Sight, I recommend it. Here's a sampler of review blurbs: ...a sober, revelatory and absolutely vital film. ...the best and saddest film of the year so far... Someone in the film notes that there were 500 ways to mess things up in Iraq and that the U.S. seems intent on going through them all. After watching No End in Sight, the inescapable conclusion is that that prediction is depressingly, but exactly right. Masterfully edited and cumulatively walloping, Charles Ferguson's No End in Sight turns the well-known details of our monstrously bungled Iraq war into an enraging, apocalyptic litany of fuckups.
