| Description | The 'war on terror' rapidly became the dominant motif of the President George W. Bush administration, with first the events of 9/11 and then the subsequent United States-led response directly shifting perceptions of the Bush presidency. The semi-official court reporter of the Bush years, Bob Woodward, has charted this descent from sympathy and initial success in Afghanistan to cynicism and then surge in Iraq, as part of a more substantial literature chronicling and critiquing every aspect of the 'war', building on the exhaustive official National Commission investigation, including a minute-by-minute chronology of the day itself, as well as a series of more defensive memoirs and a shower of Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld's so-called 'snowflake' memoranda. In addition to the way the Bush administration chose to fight the 'war on terror', there are concerns over whom it chose to focus its attention on. Book Name: George W. Bush's Foreign Policies |
