Just started a new book, here’s a choice quote:

“To occupy Iraq would instantly shatter our coalition, turning the whole Arab world against us and make a broken tyrant into a latter-day hero… assigning young soldiers to a fruitless hunt for a securely entrenched dictator and condemning them to fight in what would be an un-winnable urban guerilla war.

It could only plunge that part of the world into even greater instability.”

A World Transformed (1998)
George Herbert Walker Bush
