Download Why We Lost: A General's Inside Account of the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars AudioBook Free
A high-ranking general's gripping insider bill of the U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and how it all proceeded to go wrong. On the 35-year profession, Daniel Bolger increased through the military infantry to become three-star general, commanding in both theaters of the U.S. campaigns in Iraq and Afghanistan. He participated in conferences with top-level armed service and civilian players, where strategy was made and been able. At exactly the same time, he regularly taken a rifle alongside rank-and-file soldiers in combat actions - different for an over-all. Now, as a see to all degrees of military command, Bolger offers a unique assessment of the wars, from 9/11 to the ultimate withdrawal from the region. Writing with hard-won experience and unflinching integrity, Bolger makes the stable case that in Iraq and in Afghanistan, we lost - but we didn't have to. Intellect was garbled. Key decision creators were blinded by spreadsheets or ideas. And at the root of our failure, we hardly ever really understood our adversary. Why We Lost is a timely, forceful, and compulsively listenable bill of the wars from a brand new and authoritative perspective.
