A harsh indictment

Gurtov lets out an angry analysis of the Bush administration's handling of foreign policy, from mismanagement, cronyism, and ideological agendas and more. While his language is harsh and a bit removed from objectivity, his text is well researched and annotated, and a very quick and interesting read. The true gem of this book is the very last chapter, which reads like an idealistic, heart-wrenching speech of what went wrong and what should have been done. This book is a must read for all those who blindly buy into Fox News propaganda, and for all those who want to get a comprehensive picture of why this administration is the worst that ever happened to this country
