Another Book Questions Bush Administration's Competence
by TChris
The latest book for the tirelessly well-informed reader to peruse is Imperial Hubris: Why the West is Losing the War on Terror. Written by a counterterrorism official still working for the CIA, the book argues that the Bush administration has unnecessarily left the United States with a choice in Iraq and Afghanistan "between war and endless war."
The book charges that Saddam Hussein posed no immediate threat to the United States; that the war in Iraq undermined the overall war against terror and actually played into bin Laden's hands; and that the United States is losing that war on terror.
Here are selections from a Newsweek interview with the anonymous author.
