As Bamford sees it, with the arrival of George W Bush the situation goes from bad to worse. With the neocons in power, intelligence gathering is corrupted and politicised to create the grounds for going to war with Iraq. While much of what appears here has appeared earlier in works by Joseph Wilson, Richard Clarke and others, Bamford pulls the loose ends together and adds new reporting to create a wide-ranging yet taut and absorbing exposé of an American security apparatus that combines vast power with stunning ineptitude. --Steven Stolder, Amazon.com
