A very critical review of the events leading up to and including the first year of the second gulf war. A damning account of the planning and political events that took the USA into a war before all the facts were known and before diplomacy had a chance. The first half of the book is a gripping account of the political/military ineptitude leading to the war and the events that hindered any chance for success in the first two years of the attempt to bring stability to Iraq. All diplomats and military leaders must read to prevent another "Fiasco".

I bought the book as a gift,so I really can't review it. My husband thinks this author is an excellent writer. He has read library copies of all of Rick's books and wants to own them.
