Summary
George Packer's article in the March 26, 2007 issue of the New Yorker magazine is called "Betrayed: The Iraqis Who Trusted America the Most". He reports that those men who have been employed by Americans as construction workers, drivers and office workers are not being hunted down as collaborators and they are marked for death. Packer's most recent book is The Assassin's Gate: America in Iraq.
Then, Daniel Byman talks about the effect of the war in Iraq on state-sponsored terrorism. Byman is the Director at the Center for Peace and Security Studies at the Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University, where he is also a professor. [Broadcast Date: March 22, 2007]
