Vanity Fair to Reveal More on Sibel Edmonds’ Case

The new issue of Vanity Fair is coming out with a major piece on FBI whistleblower Sibel Edmonds’ case. The 11-page article is in the issue that hits newsstands in New York City tomorrow (Wednesday).

The article, by British journalist David Rose, promises to have new revelations beyond “the tip of the iceberg.”

Edmonds, “the most gagged woman in history,” is appealing to the US Supreme Court on Thursday to allow her to talk about what she knows about pre-9/11 intelligence failures.

How America Lost Iraq

Frequent Antiwar.com contributor Aaron Glantz writes:

    I am proud to report that How America Lost Iraq, my unembedded book about Iraq under U.S. occupation is now a bestseller. As of today, it is #9 on the San Francisco Chronicle‘s list. …

    The book has also racked up a few glowing reviews.

    Here’s what the Seattle Times had to say:

    “A no holds barred look at our Iraq quagmire … an important first-person document historians will look to in the future as they draw a more complete picture of America’s catastrophic victory in Iraq.”

    Publisher’s Weekly gave How America Lost Iraq a starred review:

    “Glantz’s account is full of interviews with ordinary Iraqis, and from their evolving thoughts and experiences he builds a critique of the many American misconceptions about Iraq, one that castigates equally the left’s knee-jerk preconceptions, the occupation authorities’ cluelessness and heavy-handed misrule and the media’s lack of interest in the suffering of Iraqis. The result is a nuanced and hard-hitting indictment.”
