description: Spring 2003, President Bush launched his pre-emptive war on Iraq as mililons of citizens worldwide protested the invasion and occupation. Journalist Peter Laufer responded by filling a time capsule marking those three weeks from the first "shock and awe" bombs over Baghdad to the made-for-TV US-orchestrated toppling of Saddam Husseins' statue in the conquered capital. You are holding that time capsule. Speeches and op-eds. Essays and letters to editors. First person accounts from Baghdad. Protest song lyrics. Poetry.
