What is Reddit's opinion of The Assassins' Gate: America in Iraq?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

Sorry, couldn't respond because I had to go to bed. Glad you enjoyed it. Yeah, like I said, ultimately it's hard to get around the fact that it worked out about the way people predicted it would - that we would get ensnared in a conflict we couldn't "win" by our own definition. But, I do believe that Bush actually believed in spreading democracy and freedom, and had a (somewhat) reasonable goal compared to Trump's policies.

I haven't actually read either of them, but if you're interested in learning about Iraq (and military affairs in general) in a more nuanced way, check out:

Admittedly, I've only read small parts of each, but both are excellent journalists/writers and they should be good.

There were a few issues with what I wrote in my first, post...comes with writing all that after a few glasses of Jack Daniels. You should read my answer to OPs reply. Did some more research on the stuff I just kinda glossed over last night. This foreign policy article might have some good information for you. There's a lot out there, but it seems to do a nice job summing things up.

Also, if you want a good source of information about the run up to the invasion of iraq itself, I cannot recommend George Packer's The Assassin's Gate highly enough.
