"War Redefined," includes interviews with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and her predecessors Madeleine Albright and Condoleezza Rice

The brutally powerful PBS documentary "Women, War & Peace" is not easy to watch, but it is an important testament to unthinkable events in Afghanistan, Bosnia, Colombia and Liberia. And to positive steps being taken in the name of humanity, justice and peace.

A recurring theme of the series is that modern wars are not fought by trained national armies so much as by gangs, undisciplined insurgent groups, armed with improvised weapons and reduced to barbaric behavior. Women have become primary targets, being systematically raped, and ultimately "emerging as critical partners in brokering peace and as leaders in forging new international laws governing conflict.""
