Run out of George Washington University in DC, the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/libproxy.temple.edu\/login?url=http:\/\/nsarchive.chadwyck.com\/\">Digital National Security Archive<\/a>\u00a0(DNSA) uses the Freedom of Information Act to collect government documents on US national security policy and then provides those documents in full-text online. It also provides bibliographies, chronologies, and glossaries related to the documents. Of course, many parts of the documents have been blacked-out by the government before they reach DNSA.<\/p>\n<p>They have also put together Collections for easy access. If you are interested in US involvement in Iraq you can search the Iraq-Gate file for national security documents and also retrieve a bibliography, chronology, and glossary on it. If you wanted to limit your search to just those instances of the file that mention Saddam Hussein, you could search the Iraq-Gate file for all instances of &#8220;saddam hussein&#8221;. 108 documents are retrieved, one of which is a 1980 intelligence report stating that Iranian air attacks make the stability of Saddam Hussein&#8217;s government uncertain. You&#8217;ll also find six documents related to Donald Rumsfeld&#8217;s visit to Iraq in 1983.<\/p>\n<p>Take a look.
