> the Pentagon leadership didn't read that book before starting the Iran affair.

The current Pentagon leadership is the kind of people that buy thousands of books with public money that nobody will read (written by their friends).

- "Ender’s Game, Orson Scott Card" is the only one from the list I have read.

- "This Kind of War: The Classic Korean War History, by T. R. Fehrenbach" seems interesting. South Korea still seems very grateful to the USA and commemorates the USA (and the rest of allies) that helped them during the Korean war.
