I have never recommended a book as strongly as I am recommending Neoconned and Neoconned Again.

A Must-Read Set on Gulf II
Taking over 20 months of extensive research, Neo-CONNED! and Neo-CONNED! Again failing to date even though they were effectively completed over two years ago. These two volumes bring together the leading minds and pens of journalism, politics, the military, the intelligence community, and academia for a hard-hitting, no-holds-barred examination of the immorality, the injustice, the illegality, and the insanity of America’s aggression against Iraq.
The first volume, Neo-CONNED!, features America’s leading “conservative” writers, such as Pat Buchanan, Joe Sobran, Samuel Francis (R.I.P.), Charley Reese, and others, arguing against the ill-fated war in Iraq based on sound ethical and religious principles accepted by not only most American “conservatives” but also by nearly all people of good will. Subtitled “Just War Principles: A Condemnation of War in Iraq,” this volume tackles the essential question of whether the war can be justified by Christian just-war principles, and whether, therefore, real “conservatives” should have opposed or supported it.
The second book in the set, Neo-CONNED! Again, brings the writing of leading scholarly and professional figures to bear on issue such as the legality of the war under international law, the intelligence fiasco that alledegly provided support for our entry into the war, the economic and political factors supporting the rush to war, and so much more. Including Noam Chomsky, Milton Viorst, Naomi Klein, Justin Raimondo, W. Patrick Lang, and many, many others, this volume – subtitled “Hypocrisy, Lawlessness, and the Rape of Iraq” lets it rip on the devious and deceitful machinations of those in power to lead the American people into a war that was not only unnecessary but gravely and profoundly wrong.
