Description: "In the spring of 2002, Philip Gold, an active and influential crusader for the Right, became "an anti-war movement of one" - one of the first mainstream conservatives to oppose the Iraq war and the Bush/neoconservative agenda. A nationally respected defense analyst and journalist, at the time senior fellow in national security affairs at a prestigious conservative think tank, he gave it all up and broke with the movement entirely."--BOOK JACKET.
