I'm currently listening to this book.
It's basically about life in the Green Zone in Iraq.
Those of you who have been paying attention for these past 6 years, know all of the screw ups very well, but this book is a really good listen or read if you want a good recap.
But it's more than just a recap, it goes into very specific detail of what was going on over there.
I'm only up to chapter 5 and it deals with bernie kerik. What a fucking colossal jerk.
oh how I wish that bastard went to jail. it's still amazes me he slithered his way out.
Anyway, I digress, the book will piss you off, amaze you and leave you dumbfounded.
I'm only 5 chapters in and I can't wait for the rest.
So many lost opportunities. The whole mess from the get go was a major recipe for disaster.
Apparently, there is a movie coming out next year, "inspired" by this book. aka it will be nothing like the book. it stars Matt Damon.
