The Iraq series covers extensively the Persian Gulf War (invasion of Kuwait by Iraqi troops, the U.N.-authorized war waged against Iraq, and the liberation of Kuwait) and the situation of the Kurds in the 1980s and 1990s (Iran–Iraq War, the anti-Kurdish Al-Anfal Campaign, the Kurdish uprising and exodus). A significant part of the collection consists of news reports and television programs broadcast by US, UK and Canadian media (ABC, CBS, CBC, CNN, NBC, PBS), as well as a large number of documentaries. The collection includes rare recordings of the genocide committed against the Iraqi Kurds and brutalities against the Kuwaitis, and reports about Saddam Hussein’s regime including testimonies of victims of torture, and Iraqi state television propaganda.
