By 2014, the world had grown weary of Iraq and its troubles. The
Americans had all but gone and the media had turned its gaze
towards Syria, but Iraq's problems were far from over. That same
year, ISIS put Iraq back on the map as they crossed the border from
Syria and rampaged through the country, kidnapping, raping and
killing, all in the name of enforcing their murderous
interpretation of Sharia law. Terror had arrived and was taking the
region in its grip. Saddam Hussein, the occupation, sectarian war,
corruption and political instability had collectively laid the
groundwork for further violence, and Iraqis were about to see the
worst of it. It was against this backdrop that Haider al-Abadi
became Prime Minister. What would likely be the most formidable
task of his life lay ahead of him: to help unify his homeland's
fractured military and politics and, slowly, to turn the tide on
ISIS, ultimately achieving what once seemed an impossible victory.
This is the definitive and fascinating true story of how the people
of Iraq took on and eventually defeated ISIS, told by the country's
former Prime Minister, Haider al-Abadi.
