...America's War for the Greater Middle East: A Military History.

Bacevich's theme, if I can paraphrase it, is that since at least 1980 we've been stumbling from policy to policy within the greater concept of War for the Middle East. I would add that we've been ranging from unfocused to screwed up vis a vis Iran since 1954.
