Donald Rumsfeld: The Kindle Singles Interview (Kindle Single) (Kindle Singles Interviews)
Donald Rumsfeld, two-time Secretary of Defense, ties the failures of the global war on terror to America's refusal to name the enemy it is fighting. The blunt-spoken architect of US military campaigns in Iraq and Afghanistan minces few words in criticizing the paralysis of US foreign policy under Obama and the rise of Russian influence in the Middle East. He also answers questions about the enduring stain of Abu Ghraib and government-sponsored torture and the idea that a neo-con conspiracy led America into war -- suggesting that most of what is attributed to conspiracy is the result of simple incompetence -- while offering his personal views of public figures including George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, Condoleezza Rice, Colin Powell, Ronald Reagan, George Schultz, Henry Kissinger and Gerald Ford.
