The Case Against George W. Bush (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

This book chronicles the presidency of George W. Bush, through almost 600 quotes from over 90 authors and other information sources, including former British Prime Minister Tony Blair; Hans Blix, head of the UN Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission from March 2000 to June 2003; former President George W. Bush himself; former Vice President Dick Cheney; former U.S. Sen. Russ Feingold; former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice; former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld; and writers and journalists such as Steve Coll, Frank Rich, Craig Unger and Bob Woodward. The author presents detailed sourced evidence of three crimes committed by George W. Bush during his presidency:

His failure to take the many warnings of coming terror attacks on our country seriously.

Taking our country, by misleading and false information, into an unnecessary and disastrous 2003 war with Iraq, costing the lives of more than 4,000 Americans and 500,000 others.

Breaking domestic and international laws by approving the torturing of people thought to have needed information of terrorists and their plans.

While the author lays out his case of the crimes, he leaves it up to each reader to decide on the probable guilt, or not, of George W. Bush and his actions and non-actions regarding the alleged crimes.
