The invasion of Iraq, launched in March 2003, was led by the United States under the now discredited claim that Iraq was developing weapons of mass destruction (WMD). However, critical questions concerning what we may be able to learn from this experience remain largely unexplored. The focus of this book, therefore, is on soldiers as systems of war - and the internal battle many of them wage as 410 0$aWar, Conflict and Ethics 606 $aIraq War, 2003-2011$xMoral and ethical aspects$zUnited States 606 $aSoldiers$zUnited States$xAttitudes 606 $aDiscourse analysis, Narrative 607 $aUnited States$xArmed Forces$zIraq$xAttitudes 615 0$aIraq War, 2003-2011$xMoral and ethical aspects 615 0$aSoldiers$xAttitudes. 615 0$aDiscourse analysis, Narrative. 676 $a355.0201 700 $aCreed$b Pamela$f1969-,$01619685 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910825125703321 996 $aEthics, norms and the narratives of war$93952061 997 $aUNINA
