Copley, Publisher of the San Diego Union Tribune\u003cp\u003e \u003ci\u003eSome Words of Advice to the Commander-in-Chief\u003c\/i\u003e shares insight from a former Vietnamese officer whose thorough research has provided him with an in-depth understanding of how the Iraq War became such a quagmire and how the United States can avoid such disasters in the future.\u003cbr\u003e Long-time immigrant Le Tat Dieu worked as a writer and journalist in Vietnam and fought with the Americans as a member of the South Vietnamese army. As a result, he has an interesting perspective on the Iraq War. While presenting a simple and clear analysis of the war, he reveals the ignorant and shocking miscalculations by former President George W. Bush and members of his administration that led to the eventual erosion of America's prestige around the world, the strength of its military, and the security of its people. As Le Tat Dieu exposes the horrifically wrong premises that motivated the actions of Condoleezza Rice, Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Bremer, and many others, he examines the consequences of invading Iraq and the eventual occupation which no current or future United States President should ignore.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Le Tat Dieu\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1440156662\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781440156663\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e iUniverse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/28\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 118\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.28d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Le Tat Dieu","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48622234927359,"sku":"9781440156663","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/some-words-of-advice-to-le-tat-dieu-9781440156663","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
