H.WTrump once he is in office." – James Risen, The New York Times “Gripping…Nixon’s book, Debriefing the President, gives more ammunition to the skeptics; indeed, some of its contentscan only be described as sensational." – John Cassidy, The New Yorker"Afascinating glimpse of the "tough, shrewd, manipulative" leader and his views on the U.SIn 1999, for example, Nixon claims the CIA didnt recognise the significance of the murder of Shia cleric Muhammad Sadiq al-Sadr, whose son, Muqtada, would become a leading Shia opponent to the Coalition Provisional Authority and new Iraqi governmentNixon, the first C.I.AEventually Saddam is taken out of CIA hands, interrogated further, and in short order turned over to the interim Iraqi government for trial and executionCredit Associated Press The findings from MrJan 22, 2017 Melissa rated it really liked it The most interesting aspect of this book is the decidedly black and white thinking that permeated the Bush foreign policyand what he sees as the agencys dysfunctional process for providing intelligence to the president and other policy makersAnd that essentially Saddam laughed into our faces and wished us the best of luck with thatHe then became one of the first to interrogate Saddam during his capture.Though being able to identify Saddam, Nixon discovered that what he and the CIA or the American government knew about the deposed Iraqi leader was somewhat different from realityIt's a punchy critique of the Bush administration, and of the hubristic nature of powerful figures that ultimately leads to death and destructionHe did several tours in Iraq and was recognized by a number of federal agencies for his contribution to the war effortAppeals to ego can open up the person being questioned, and Nixon masterfully, in my opinion, used appeals to Saddam's expansive ego to get him to talk when even he was not in the mood to talk.And, he is going to want to know whether actions already taken have been

Interrogation of Saddam Hussein, John Nixon tells the fascinating story of Saddam Husseins capture and interrogationUnflinching and unprecedented, Debriefing the President exposes a fundamental misreading of one of the modern world’s most central figures and presents a new narrative that boldly counters the received account.From the Trade Paperback editionView Product [ x ] close Mary

amazing First and foremost, I would like to say thank you to the author John Nixon for clearly narrating his experience as an analyst for the CIA under the administration of Clinton 42 and Bush 43.The

the rights and duties of citizensHe eschews cliches and gives a humane and thoughtful account of his discussions with Saddam, as well as the consequences of the American role in Iraq generally.A few things that are particularly striking are Nixon's accounts of the organizational dysfunction within the U.SClearly, in Nixons way of thinking, having a President, unfamiliar with the region, its history, its people, and its leaders, and yet being too arrogant and convinced that his own gut feelings outweigh the information of the experts in the intelligence agencies may provide, was a recipe for disaster.The author was also disappointed in Obamas apparent lack of interest in the CIA Iraqi analyses, and his subsequent eagerness to get out of Iraq as quickly as possiblegovernment and the CIA in particularFeb 18, 2017 Ziad Fahom rated it it was amazing "In foreign affairs, the United States is constantly reinventing the wheel by quickly forgetting the lessons learned from the last warIn hindsight, its not difficult to understand why Nixon describes the U.SHe was also very critical of the leadership in the CIA for being more focused on pleasing the President and his advisors, favoring analysis which supported the Presidential teams pre-conceived notions about Iraq, and downplaying analysis which contradicted those notions 83fc8d264e John Nixon Arrest Detail.
