This book examines how the Bush administration avoided telling the truth about Iraq to the public, to Congress, and often to themselves. In this detailed inside story of a war-torn White House, Woodward answers the core questions: What happened after the invasion of Iraq? Why? How does Bush make decisions and manage a war that he chose to define his presidency? And is there an achievable plan for victory?--From publisher description. 000312467 60010 $$aBush, George W.$$q(George Walker),$$d1946- 000312467 650_0 $$aNational security$$zUnited States$$xDecision making. 000312467 650_0 $$aIraq War, 2003-2011. 000312467 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xMilitary policy$$xDecision making. 000312467 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xOfficials and employees. 000312467 85200 $$bgen$$hE903.3$$i.W67$$i2006 000312467 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:312467$$pGLOBAL_SET 000312467 980__ $$aBIB 000312467 980__ $$aBOOK 000312467 994__ $$aC0$$bISE
