In a June 2010 interview for The New York Times, when asked by photojournalist Michael Kamber about Infidel, the book he did with Chris Boot that was about to be published, Hetherington commented on the level of danger he encountered when working on it: The first time I went to Afghanistan, in 2007, the world was very much focused on Iraq.
U intervjuu u lipnju 2010. godine za The New York Times, kad ga je fotoreporter Michael Kamber pitao o Infidelu, knjizi koju je napravio s izdavačem Chrisom Bootom, i koja je upravo trebala biti izdana, Hetherington je komentirao razinu opasnosti koju je susreo radeći na njoj: Prvi put kad sam otputovao u Afghanistan, 2007., svijet je bio vrlo usredotočen na Irak.
