TONY LAGOURANIS: Lessons from Abu
Ghraib Date: October 4, 2007 The Forum;
Length: 1 hr. 45 min.
Tony Lagouranis, a
former Abu Ghraib Army interrogator, discusses
the failure of U.S. Intelligence Services' attempts to understand the
Iraqi people and its nascent Iraqi government — and how lessons from
these failures can be used to foster improved relations in the Middle
East. Lagouranis has appeared on PBS' “Frontline,” “Hardball” with
Chris Matthews, “Democracy Now!”, Al Jazeera, the BBC, and in the
movies Ghosts of Abu Ghraib and Iraq for
Sale. He is the author of Fear Up Harsh: An Army
Interrogator's Dark Journey through Iraq (Penguin).
