About this product
Product Information
The international bestselling account of America's grim involvement in the affairs of Afghanistan from 2001 to 2016 In the wake of the terrible shock of 9/11, the C.I.A. scrambled to work out how to destroy Bin Laden and his associates. Superficially the invasion was quick and efficient, but Bin Laden's successful escape, together with that of much of the Taliban leadership, and a catastrophic failure to define the limits of NATO's mission in a tough, impoverished country the size of Texas, created a quagmire which has now lasted many years. At the heart of the problem lay 'Directorate S', a highly secretive arm of the Pakistan state which had its own views on the Taliban and Afghanistan's place in a wider competition for influence between Pakistan, India and China, and which assumed that the U.S.A. and its allies would soon be leaving. Steve Coll's remarkable new book tells a powerful, bitter story of just how badly foreign policy decisions can go wrong and of many lives lost.

- f***r (9611)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseOnce again from this seller, a fine CD ends up being somewhat disappointing due to the case being broken in the post (and stickers over the case as well) which necessitated a replacement. This devalues the otherwise good item.
