Charlie Wilson's War

[The Art of War]

Anyone else read/reading this? It's a great book about Congressman Charlie Wilson and how he got support for the mujahideen in afghanistan during the Soviet/Afghan war....how he got CIA to start backing the muja. Excellent read, and I'm only on Chapter 2.

George Crile, from 60 Minutes/60 Min. 2 wrote it. I'm really enjoying it. Chapter 5 right now.

Even though it was sarcasm, this IS history. The CIA's larget operation ever...as a matter of fact.

Sounds good. I may pick it up or at least check it out from the library.
