Answer:
ok
Explanation:
The stated purpose of Plan of Attack is to provide a detailed account of why U.S. president George W. Bush, spurred on by his supporters and his advisers, engaged the United States in an unprecedented preemptive war against a sovereign country, Iraq, to bring down its dictator, Saddam Hussein. Hussein was undeniably a cruel and power-crazed despot who ruled by brutalizing Iraqis who opposed him in any way. Famed journalist Bob Woodward's major question, nevertheless, is whether the United States could successfully justify conducting an offensive against Iraq, thereby violating the sovereignty of an independent nation.
In his earlier book Bush at War (2002), Woodward delved into the president's motivations for considering a preemptive attack on Iraq. In preparing to write Plan of Attack, Woodward had Bush's full cooperation. The heart of the book is based on three-and-a-half hours of interviews Woodward conducted in the White House with the president on December 10-11, 2003. Woodward interviewed defense secretary Donald Rumsfeld as well, for more than three hours during the autumn of 2003.
Bush directed other government officials to cooperate with Woodward, who subsequently interviewed more than seventy-five people crucially involved in events that resulted in the war against Iraq. These included White House staff members, key figures in the Departments of State and Defense, officials of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), and members of Bush's war cabinet. It was agreed that these interviews would be conducted for background information, which meant that Woodward was free to use information gained through them but was not free to identify his sources directly or individually.
