After the United States invaded Iraq and removed Saddam Hussein from power in spring 2003, the city of Fallujah became a hotbed of unrest. In March 2004, four American contractors were brutally murdered and mutilated there. President Bush ordered an attack to subdue the city. This attack was called off early after it sparked a media and political firestorm. With U.S. forces out of it, Fallujah became the red-hot epicenter of Iraq’s Sunni insurgency and the U.S. recommitted to taking it through large-scale offensive action. This operation, known as Phantom Fury, lasted from through November and December 2004. It was America’s bloodiest battle of the Iraq war. Bing West tells the story in “No True Glory.” We are joined in this episode by Mr. Pat Carroll who spent close to four years in Iraq working in or dealing with Fallujah
