Gonna write a big review for this. SImultaneously sobering, enlightening, and enthralling. The American mismanagement of this conflict is so comprehensive it's astounding. But this work, which interviewed everyone from Bush to almost every officer on the ground in Iraq, does a great job breaking all the issues down in a no-punches-pulled way. They are extremely critical of American policy of occupation. Great book!

Re reading. Unbelievable blunders one after another. This book is from a series of colonels at the US army war college, and it’s an official history and analysis of the Iraq War. They are extremely critical, and have access to huge amounts of interviews and information. This work is very even handed, and does an excellent job showing exactly where all the points of failure were from an ‘objective’ standpoint
