James Bamford
American author, journalist and documentary producer noted for his writing about U. S. intelligence agencies
A Pretext for War
James Bamford, known for his deep dives into intelligence agencies, presents a critical examination of America's intelligence failures and the Bush administration's push for war. He investigates the mishandling of pre-9/11 threats and the unproven claims regarding Iraq's weapons of mass destruction. Bamford argues that the administration co-opted the intelligence community for political gain, compromising American security and driven by an elite group's long-held beliefs.
