Top US, European and Iraqi leaders - political and military - tell the inside story of their private talks, phone calls, deals and clashes. Former members of Saddam Hussein's regime tell - for the first time on television - just what he said to them as the threat of war grew. Over three episodes, the series gets the insiders to tell what happened at crucial moments on the road to war following 9/11, the first year after the invasion as Iraq's liberation became a US occupation and Iraq's descent into civil war.
