This is a story not of simple corruption but of the unexpected origins of a more subtle and, in many ways, more worrisome disfiguring of our political system and society.While in no way absolving George W. Bush and his inner circle of their accountability for misguiding the country into a disastrous war - in fact, Jarecki sheds new light on the deepest underpinnings of how and why they did so - he reveals that the forty-third president's predisposition toward war and Congress's acquiescence to his wishes must be understood as part of a longer story. This corrupting of our system was predicted by some of America's leading military and political minds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eugene Jarecki","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44213203599420,"sku":"RP9781416544562","price":400.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0714\/7706\/7836\/files\/RP9781416544562.jpg?v=1776708182","url":"https:\/\/libertybooksstore.myshopify.com\/products\/the-american-way-of-war-guided-missiles-misguided-men-and-a-republic-in-peril-hardcover-14-oct-2008","provider":"LibertyBooksStore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
