First shown in 2000. Contains distressing scenes. John Pilger and Alan Lowrey travel to Iraq with Dennis Halliday, a former assistant secretary-general of the United Nations who resigned over what he called the "immoral policy" of economic sanction. There they find a suffering nation held hostage to the compliance of a dictator, Saddam Hussein, over whom they have no control.
