Original Proposal - Obama's Wars by Bob Woodward - Nov 10th

.
Obama’s Wars by Bob Woodward is available at your local public library or from Amazon.com for $15.00 + shipping.

Bob Woodward is the Pulitzer Prize winning Columnist and Associate Editor of the Washington Post who, as a young reporter, teamed with Carl Bernstein, another young Washington Post reporter, to break the Nixon Watergate story and then to pursue it with the help of Deep Throat until Nixon was forced to leave office.

Woodward’s latest book was released September 27th and rocketed straight to Number One on the NY Times Bestseller List. Its title, Obama’s Wars, refers to (1) his decision at the beginning of his Administration to surge American troop strength in Afghanistan by 21,000 and then, after an extended period of re-evaluation, to surge American troop strength in Afghanistan by another 33,000, bringing it from 47,000 at the beginning of his Administration to a total of 101,000, and (2) his decisions to increase the number of drone attacks inside Pakistan by a factor of more than 10 and to pressure the Pakistani Army to provide the “boots on the ground” to support his new war in Pakistan.

Bob Woodward’s new book is obviously timed to influence President Obama’s Review of American Policy in Afghanistan which is scheduled to commence in December and which was announced at the same time as his second American troop surge in Afghanistan.

Accordingly, we hope to see and hear all of you on Nov 10th!!!
