Lecture by James Bamford

"Iraq, Torture, and Preemptive War-What Is Happening to Democracy in America?"

At a time when the growing debate on the direction of the country has reached an urgent state, the need for clear-headed analyses from thinkers like James Bamford is needed on our campuses and in our society perhaps more than ever before.

James Bamford is the author of The Puzzle Palace and A Pretext for War: 9/11, Iraq, and the Abuse of the Intelligent Agencies.
