The Insurgency

on BBC Two England

The Sunni-led uprising against the occupation of Iraq and the Shiah-controlled government is scrutinised in this uncompromising documentary made in the run-up to the elections in December last year. Blindfolded and unprotected, two dogged journalists reached areas of Iraq untouched by coalition forces to question the motives of those who have taken up arms against allied forces. Yet the true story could lie with the ordinary people who suffered executions at the hands of al-Qaeda, and proud countrymen willing to put their lives on the line to expunge oppression.
