{"product_id":"ignorant-armies","title":"Ignorant Armies - Sliding into War in Iraq","description":"Baffled by how Bush’s war on al-Qaeda segued into war on Iraq? Canada’s leading expert  on war unravels the tangled chain of events.\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/i\u003eThe terrorist attacks on the United  States on September 11, 2001, have unleashed an avalanche of events that is sliding  inexorably towards war between the U.S.A. (and possibly its allies) and Iraq. These  events are clearly connected yet so hugely different in character and motive that  even those who follow the news closely are bewildered by how the war on al-Qaeda  in Afghanistan segued into war in the Middle East. In \u003ci\u003eIgnorant Armies\u003c\/i\u003e, Gwynne Dyer,  a peerless commentator on the causes and consequences of war, explains the strategies  of the major players: American, Iraqi, Israeli, and Islamist. Alarmingly, he demonstrates  that despite the growing bellicosity from the White House, neither the U.S.A. nor  the other protagonists in this drama have a strategy that serves their own long-term interests. Worse, they are unlikely to achieve even their short-term goals. But,  Dyer argues convincingly, they are likely to smash a good deal of crockery on their  way to finding that out.","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50955335663904,"sku":"9780771029776","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0836\/3661\/7504\/files\/9780771029776.jpg?v=1763707059","url":"https:\/\/creativebysanchez.com\/es\/products\/ignorant-armies","provider":"Creative By Sanchez","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
