AI-generated Review of “Friendly Fire”:


Snippets and Summary:

IN THE BEGINNING were Paul Wolfowitz, Robert Kagan, and their soul mates. Or so it seemed, once the U.S. deputy secretary of defense announced the death of permanent coalitions like the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) at the high-powered Munich Security Conference in February 2002 and the relatively unknown policy wonk published his essay on "Power and Weakness" a few months later and captivated the chattering classes.

"Friendly Fire" Description:

The Open Library:

"Relations between the United States and Europe have declined in recent years, and today they are worse than at any time since the 1950s. In Friendly Fire, Elizabeth Pond examines the widening gulf and worsening acrimony between the United States and its traditional allies on the European continent." "Elizabeth Pond examines a number of disputes that led to the near death of the transatlantic alliance in the last year - chronic trade quarrels, the International Criminal Court, the Kyoto Protocol, Israeli-Palestinian violence, the proper role of the United Nations and international law - and identifies the ways in which they reinforce and exacerbate one another. In addition, Pond examines the German-American-French strains over the impending Iraq war as well as its aftermath."--BOOK JACKET.
