Sommario/riassunto |
|
A faith-based policy governed key features of the American invasion of Iraq, including the choice of a self-defeating "Shock and Awe" strategy, and the grossly mismanaged occupation. A religious rationale likewise blinded devotees of the White House torture program to the predictable cost in American lives, and the damage to America's moral standing. |
