Why I recommend "The Assassins' Gate: America in Iraq" — 1 year ago
WORTH CONSUMING!
Probably the single best book on the current situation in Iraq. The many examples of how the Bush administration refused to plan for the post-war period are shocking and discouraging. I wouldn’t call Packer either left or right-leaning. I think he supported the war but is angry that there was no thought given to the reconstruction of the country after the “regime change.”
