A must read on the new American way of war.

I've been reading Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times reporter Mark Mazzetti's new book The Way of the Knife: The CIA, a Secret Army, and a War at the Ends of the Earth this past weekend. The book tracks the transformation of the CIA and U.S. special operations forces post 9/11 and I have to say I'm finding it to be a good read.

Here is a rundown of some reviews and interviews I've found online today
