On the way

Review of the 《Decision Points》

George W. Bush tries to convince the audience to believe he make the decisons more difficult than his predecessors.Indeed he faced more complicated political and economic situations,even ethical issues.

The story of the 911 week is the key to understand his presidency.USA metropolitan territory was far away from war for decades since the Vietnam War.It’s been hundreds years the metropolitan territory hasn’t been attacked seriously since the independent war.So putting America on a war footing was one of the most important decisions of his presidency.Anti-terrorism is a new subject study to USA—-there is no definitely country responsible for the attack.Declaration of war to the al Qaeda can’t stroke America down.It’s easy to understand he launched the war to Iraq for weapons of mass destruction.

Stem cell research policy was another decision Bush made.The meeting with Holy Father Pope John Paul II made up his mind in 2001.In Pope’s opinion,human life must be protected in all its forms.
