    How do you teach a war that’s still ongoing, and that carries so much political baggage? This week on War News Radio, we hear about a curriculum available that brings Iraq to high-school classrooms.

    And, as politicians strike a deal to outlaw inhumane treatment of prisoners in American custody, we visit a center that specializes in treating victims of torture.

    With parliamentary elections over, we look at what one Iraqi voter thought in the last days of the campaign, and who earned his vote.

    These stories, plus the week’s news, from War News Radio.
