Yahoo! News - Memoir Criticizes Bush 9/11 Response: "'What was unique about George Bush's reaction' was the additional choice to invade 'not a country that had been engaging in anti-U.S. terrorism but one that had not been, Iraq.' In so doing, he estranged allies, enraged potential friends in the Arab and Islamic worlds, and produced 'more terrorists than we jail or shoot.'
'It was as if Osama bin Laden (news - web sites), hidden in some high mountain redoubt, were engaging in long-range mind control of George Bush, chanting 'invade Iraq, you must invade Iraq,' ' Clarke writes."
