The Bush League Of Nations: The Coalition Of The Unwilling, The Bullied And The Bribed: The Gop's War On Iraq And America

By James A. Swanson

Book Overview

With hard analysis and good humor, the author exposes the Coalition of the Willing as a rightwing myth to deceive Americans while the neo-GOP wages war on Iraq and America. Includes 3 plans: 1) "Withdraw from Iraq and Win in Afghanistan;" 2) "An International Plan;" and 3) "Support Our Troops." Includes analysis of the so-called coalition and the 50+ nations shamelessly claimed to be members. Topics include: the just war principles; corporate mercenaries in Iraq; the warmongering role of neocons and Big Media; GOP corruption in America and Iraq; treason and crimes against humanity; and GOP tools used to gut the U.S. Constitution and bankrupt America. Includes Articles of Impeachment and extensive index. The author served in the Peace Corps in the Muslim nation of Morocco. Raised a Lutheran in North Dakota and now a Methodist, he's appalled at the Christian Reich's neo-Jesus: Pro-War and Pro-Rich. He holds JD & MBA degrees from Stanford and SB from MIT.

James Swanson's grasp of the big picture by Mike Baird

I had an opportunity to review Jim Swanson's brilliant political commentary "The Bush League of Nations" during its writing. Jim is co-author with me (Michael "Mike" L. Baird) of our 15-year best-selling book "Engineering Your Start-Up: A Guide for the High-Tech Entrepreneur" (EYSU2), 2nd Edition, Professional Publications, Inc. at eysu d o t org. I knew from that experience that Jim had an astounding ability to write clearly and with high impact. "The Bush League of Nations" captures all of those qualities of the author, and is notable for its clearness, completeness, and consistency - the research embodied in this book is unrivaled. Written in a well-structured way, with numerous "sidebar" anecdotes, this book is easy to consume. Pro-Bush or anti-Bush, the reader will have to be impressed with James Swanson's grasp of the big picture. Historians writing about the impact of the Bush presidency in completely destroying the reputation of the United States worldwide, and in transforming what the GOP party once stood for, should refer to this unique tome on evil and unrestrained power.
