Blasting His Way To Glory
His words are shocking, hilarious and surreal – about Iraq or India
As an Associate Editor with the Washington Post, widely read by American policy makers, Chandrasekaran is the newspaper’s resident Iraq expert. He is tireless, ambitious, and ferocious; in 2003 alone, he wrote 140 front-page pieces for the Post from Iraq. He nearly died in October 2003 when a bomb exploded outside Baghdad hotel, where he was interviewing a member of the Iraqi Governing Council. “The window behind me, if it hadn’t been coated with Mylar (strong polyester film) three days earlier, I wouldn’t have been here,” he told rediff.com. After his Iraq stint, he wrote a book, Imperial Life in the Emerald City: Inside Iraq’s Green Zone, which was described by the same website as “shocking, sometimes hilarious, and often surreal account of what went wrong with president George W. Bush’s war in Iraq.” He has traveled to and worked in India for the same newspaper. He reported on the developments in India and Pakistan after America was shocked and angered by 9/11 terror attacks. He described how nuclear neighbours nearly went to war after New Delhi seriously considered whether to “strike at Pakistan-based militant groups that officials here hold responsible for a recent attack on Parliament.” He detailed out the troops’ build-up on both sides of the contentitious border. He wrote on the Gujarat riots in 2002 that traumatised both Hindus and Muslims. “Hindu and Muslim leaders said they expected the strife to lead to a redrawing of demographic maps in Ahmedabad, Gujarat’s capital, and other places in the state,” he said in a March 2002 piece for the Washington Post. “Now either they can live here or we can live here. We both can no longer live here. The divisions are too deep,” he quoted Sand Kumar, a Hindu who was moving his family’s possessions out of a predominantly Muslim area in central Ahmedabad.
