Todenhöfer's book is an account of his extensive conversations with members of the Iraqi resistance, in Ramadi. What he learned there is the sort of thing that our press couldn't and/or wouldn't tell us in a million years, because the US military has Iraq sealed tight (which made his visit there extremely dangerous).
The fact that we don't know what's really happening there makes Why Do You Kill? an enormously important book--and his talks here a great opportunity for those who can show up to hear him speak, and ask him questions.
