“The disturbing lesson of Anthony Coredsman's Iraq and the War of Sanctions, an authoritative study of American bombing of Iraq's chemical and biological and nuclear installations after 1991, is that using high-tech weaponry merely slows down, but cannot halt, a determined attempt by a rogue nation to create deadly arsenals.”–New York Review of Books
