We take a street-level look at post-war Iraq. The collapse of Saddam’s regime has created as many questions as it has answered. Dictatorship has made way for anarchy, supplies that were limited before are now non-existent. Are the Americans winning the hearts and minds campaign? Do they care?

But this startling footage shows the early looting and euphoria as the Shiites of East Baghdad cel…
