Sean Penn returns to Iraq and files a personal, candid report from the front
Sean Penn is an actor and director from San Francisco Bay Area. He criticized the American President Mr. G.W. Bush with a self-financed letter in the Washington Post published October 18, 2002 and a self-financed ad in the New York Times published May 30, 2003.
In December 2002 he went to Iraq himself to learn about the American-Iraqi conflict from the people who were living through it. Just a week before Saddam Hussein was finally cought he did a second trip to Iraq to observe how the American invasion changed the life in Iraq. His thoughts about the trip can now be read at the website of the SF Chronicle.
