In the second part of this story, two Iraq veterans from Tennessee discuss their frustration with the lack of coverage the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are getting. They are both members of Iraq Veterans Against the War, but show strong support for their colleagues still fighting overseas (as well as the innocent civilians caught in the struggle).

“No End In Sight” - Documentary Review
August 19th, 2007 · 1 Comment
In short, the film describes a war implemented with a profound lack of planning seemingly guided only by a toxic mixture of arrogance, naivete, and an unwillingness to face realities that conflicted with the blind faith of Neo-Con architects. So, it rarely tells us anything we don’t already know, but it combines impressive access to key figures, strong imagery from the war, and taut storytelling to deliver an important record of history.
