On July 10, 2002, more than eight months before the invasion
that toppled Saddam Hussein’s regime, eight American CIA
operatives slipped into northern Iraq. They endured almost a
year of being denied vital supplies by a NATO ally, Turkey,
as they pursued a covert operation with profound
consequences for both the War on Terror and the Iraq War:
Operation Hotel California.
Operation Hotel California tells the inside story of the
dangerous mission that paved the way for the Iraq
invasion—and delivers the most blistering indictment to date
by any American counterterrorism officer of the Bush
administration’s blunders vis-à-vis Iraq and al Qaeda.
Drawing on exclusive interviews with Charles Faddis, the
operation’s leader, and other team members, and featuring
never-before-seen photos, Operation Hotel California is a
riveting work that will shake Washington to the core.
