Abstract

When American forces took over Saddam Hussein's palaces and ministries during the invasion of 2003, they also captured all of Iraq's government documents. Williamson Murray, professor emeritus of history at The Ohio State University, argues that ignoring Saddam's government documents has been a serious mistake. Murray is part of a team of scholars at the U.S. Naval Academy engaged in translating these documents from Arabic and making them available in the National Archives.
