    本片讲述了伊拉克是怎样陷入战争、军阀统治、犯罪率暴增及无政府主义状态,以客观的角度向人们展示了自2003年秋天以后伊拉克所发生的事情……

    对话文本:

    No End in Sight is a new documentary directed by Charles Ferguson, a former political scientist and scholar at the Brookings Institution who turned the documentary film making to tell the story about what went wrong in the early days of the American war in Iraq.

    Now this movie is in some ways very wide-ranging, but it's also very focused. The basic story it has to tell is about what happened right after the invasion in the months, in the spring and early summer of 2003, when according to the people, interviewed in this film, decisions were made that'd cast the die for what was gonna happen later.

    He talks to military personnel, to diplomats, to journalists and administrators and the story that emerges is a devastating picture of arrogance and incompetence.

    Again, these are not anti-war activists or leftists. These are people who went into Iraq toimplement the Bush administration’s policies ,to try to rebuild the country after the fall of Saddam Hussein, and found themselves ignored, undermined and thwarted by the policies that were coming from Washington.

    In some ways No End in Sight asks a very simple question, one that’s already beginning to be asked in political circles, in journalism, on talk shows, the question, "Who lost Iraq?" "Who is responsible for the fact that this war has gone on for four years, more than four years with so much violence?" And the movie supplies very specific answers. It names names. It says Paul Wolfowitz , Donald Rumsfeld, L. Paul Bremer , Dick Cheney, George Bush. Perhaps not surprisingly all of these people declined Charles Ferguson’s offer to be interviewed for this movie. One can only help that one of these days they'll get around to watching it.
