Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:From the author of "Nuclear Policies in Europe" comes a critical look at the war in Iraq and its somber implications. Book News Annotation:Tertrais (a senior research fellow at the Foundation for Strategic
Research in Paris, France) analyzes the ideology and strategy of
George W. Bush's "War on Terror." He traces the rise of
neoconservatism from its roots in the thought of political
philosopher Leo Strauss to the installation of prominent
neoconservatives in key foreign policy positions in the Bush
administration. He then critically examines their goals and
assumptions in prosecuting the "Wan on Terror," arguing that their
misconceptions about the nature of Al Qaeda, the politics of the
Middle East, and American political and military power has possibly
ensnared the US into an unwinnable "war without end." He also
considers the implications of such a situation for American relations
with Europe and the rest of the world.
