Battle for Baghdad

Four years after the invasion of Iraq, American troops battle it out with insurgents on Haifa Street in downtown Baghdad, paying the price for four years of military and political miscalculations.

In a last desperate gamble to save what many see as a losing war, a 'surge' of over 25,000 extra troops are being rushed to Baghdad. Lose the Battle for Baghdad, and you lose Iraq.

This is the story of what went wrong. How America got trapped on these streets, as told by some of the top commanders in the war and the New York Times correspondents who are covering it.
