From Planning to Warfare to Occupation, How Iraq Went Wrong
By MICHIKO KAKUTANI

The title of this devastating new book about the American war in Iraq says it all: “Fiasco.” That is the judgment that Thomas E.

And he serves up his portrait of that war as a misguided exercise in hubris, incompetence and folly with a wealth of detail and evidence that is both staggeringly vivid and persuasive.
