What is Mission Not Accomplished : How George Bush Lost The War On Terrorism about?

After 9/11, President Bush reassured Americans and the world that he would lead the fight against terror aggressively and unremittingly until Osama bin Laden and al-Qaida were crushed. Since then his actions have fallen short, and he has apparently lost sight of the mission. In his new book, former FBI counterintelligence specialist and CNN analyst William Turner portrays the White House as an administration of broken promises, insufficient planning, failed diplomacy, misplaced priorities and suspect motives, and hammers Bush for selling the invasion of Iraq as part of the War on Terror, when in fact Iraq had no WMD and posed no threat. The presidents banner declaration, "Mission Accomplished," on June 1, 2003, proved all the more ironic given the continuing terrorist attacks since then and the guerrilla struggle festering in Iraq. In addition, the bravado masked profiteering by Halliburton, the Carlyle Group, and other war contractors, gross counterintelligence failures, a dangerous crackdown on civil liberties, and homeland security that doesnt meet threats we face.
