Forlagets beskrivelse
The long, tragic history of military intelligence mistakes and the destruction they have caused is laid bare in this fascinating account, from the defeat of Napoleon at Waterloo in 1815 to Pearl Harbor and the Tet Offensive to the invasion of Iraq. Original.
Bibliotekernes beskrivelse
The events of 9/11 and the war on terrorism and the daily crises in the Israeli-Palestinian conflictbehind them lie some of the most shocking failures and misuse of military intelligence in history. In this updated edition of Colonel Hughes-Wilson's controversial book, the long-serving professional military intelligence officer explores and exposes the often disastrous misunderstanding and mishandling of crucial intelligence by politicians and seasoned generals in recent times. Modern military history records major catastrophes in the air, at sea, and on the battlefield that originate in lapses of military judgmentfrom the crushing defeat of Napoleon at Waterloo to Stalin's Operation Barbarossa to Yom Kippur. The reason frequently lies in the failure of the decision makers in power to understand and appreciate fully intelligence information. So it was that American bureaucratic bungling and interservice rivalries collaborated with the Japanese in their devastating attack on Pearl Harbordespite the fact that the U. S. was monitoring Japan's top-secret radio traffic. So, too, the Viet Cong's Tet Offensive of 1968 took the world's most technologically advanced army completely by surprise. This book discloses the lapses, errors, miscalculations, and underestimations of military intelligence that have shaped our wars and defined our times.
