Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The continuing absence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq has put the Bush administration's drive to war under renewed scrutiny. Although George W. Bush decried the "revisionist historians" who claim retrospectively that Iraq was no threat, in fact the administration knew there was no threat long before the war started and, as Rep. Henry Waxman and others argue, engaged in a systematic pattern of deception regarding weapons of mass destruction.In Full Spectrum Dominance: U.S. Power in Iraq and Beyond, Rahul Mahajan addresses this deception while contextualizing U.S. policy toward Iraq within a larger vision of U.S. global dominance. As soon as the Pentagon and Twin Towers were attacked, Mahajan asserts, a war against on Iraq became inevitable, in the absence of massive resistance. Donald Rumsfeld issued orders to implicate Iraq within hours of the events of September 11 and, Mahajan persuasively argues, a design for war was in the works-if not unveiled-at that moment. In this compelling big-picture assessment of the U.S. war on Iraq, Mahajan suggests that this devastating event offers lessons for understanding the contemporary role of the United States in the world. He argues that Iraqi connections to al-Qaeda and other terrorist organizations; Iraq's putative weapons of mass destruction; and the Bush administration's stated desire to bring peace, democracy, and liberation to the Middle East are pretexts obscuring a fundamentally offensive posture by the United States. Combining his experience as an anti-Iraq sanctions activist with a keen analysis of U.S. foreign policy in the post-Cold War era, Mahajan provides the analysis that has been overlooked in the mainstream debate. Situating Iraq within the larger context of post-9/11 foreign policy, he analyzes the Bush National Security Strategy and the new neoconservative vision of achieving increasing degrees of global domination and control. Presented with unflinching clarity, Mahajan's research demonstrates that the war on Iraq was part of a much larger plan, assembled before 9/11 and, as stated by the Project for a New American Century, needing only a "new Pearl Harbor" to implement it.Beginning with a review of Iraq strangulation by more than twelve years of sanctions, Mahajan dismantles step-by-step the administration's arguments for the war. He then looks forward to address questions that remain unresolved by the military effort, examining U.S. intentions in occupying Iraq and its plans for the Middle East and reengaging the administration's compromising positions on weapons of mass destruction, international law, and oil.Mahajan concludes by sketching in broad strokes the shape of the latest U.S. strategy in Iraq and beyond. Challenging the sincerity of U.S. democracy-making in the Middle East, Mahajan suggests instead that regime change indicates a U.S. expansion of military control of which we should be deeply concerned. At few times in recent history have we seen a war so insistently and openly signaled as the U.S.'s looming war on Iraq. According to Rahul Mahajan, the coming war is a culmination of a process that the United States started with the Gulf War, where Iraq was made into a permanent target and pariah state. Mahajan argues that the Bush administration's post-September 11 policy toward Iraq is neither about controlling weapons of mass destruction nor fighting terrorism, but about consolidating U.S. control of oil reserves and dominance in the Middle East. Despite the prospects that attacking Iraq could quickly escalate into wider regional war and lead to further terrorist attacks, the Bush administration insists that violence is our only option. Mahajan cuts through the comic-book language of President Bush's "Axis of Evil" rationale, and presents a much-needed examination of the myths, facts, and history behind the U.S.&#0 Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
