The Cold War certainties that had seemed so fixed in the 20th
Century were overturned by the war in Iraq. Saddam Hussein's
Republican Guards were the battlefield victims of a brutally quick
war of shock and awe. No less shocked and awed were some of
America's former allies: "old" Europe, large blocks of the UN, and
half the G8 nations suddenly found themselves outside the chain of
command and influence.
Bush, Blair, and their allies were driven by a new global vision.
Their mission, expressed with great moral certainty, has been
called imperialist. In fact, it was simply inevitable after 9/11:
that terrible event ushered in a new era with new rules. Shawcross
shows what the future will hold for Iraq, Israel, and the Middle
East, how Western alliances will be changed forever, and
demonstrates that the war was the definitive proof that a new era
of 21st Century international politics has begun.
