In late April 2003, the author rode in an open car down Baghdad's wide-open airport highway. US Army and Marine units had seized the city just two weeks before, at the end of a short invasion. He had come to Iraq for a few months, detailed to the White House from another agency, and he was heading that morning to Basra, the southern city occupied by the British Army.
