Publisher's Synopsis
Murder of Diplomacy is the historical account of how and why President George Bush, his war council, and allies launched a preemptive attack to topple Saddam Hussein and occupy Iraq. I had a first hand experience of the event that took place at the United Nations Security Council before the decision to invade Iraq; I started writing on the sanctions imposed on Iraq before the war, continued on as soon as the war began and stopped after President Bush declared the war ended. Almost five years after in 2010, Iraq is still a war zone and no weapon of mass destruction has been found however, I have decided to publish my account as it happened despite fact that many things have changed in Iraq since the invasion. You we read about why the United States and the whole world believed Saddam possessed WMD and why the war is still justified despite fact that no WMD has been found to date.Saddam failed to obey the United Nations resolutions and the world believed he possessed WMD. This book is an account of what happened in Iraq from the invasion till 2005 and it is the most precise account of the UN sanctions regimes. Murder of Diplomacy is part presidential history discussing the decisions made during 16 critical months; part military history revealing precise details and the evolution of the top secret war planning; part a thriller detailing the combat that took place as American soldiers launched the attack; part a spy story as the CIA dispatches its team into northern Iraq; and part a revelation of the meetings by world leaders at the United Nations. This is a book for students of research and those who want a true account of what actually happened before and during the invasion up until 2005.
