The Sunday Times Oxford Literary Festival, Times Online, Books

The Sunday Times Oxford Literary Festival, Times Online, Books: "Fukuyama is against the whole concept of a pre-emptive war � �As Bismarck said, it�s like �committing suicide for fear of death�� � but he has also been shaken by its execution. It is tough when you blame your own friends for the debacle.
�I�m not just shocked, I�m completely appalled by the sheer level of incompetence. If you are going to be a �benevolent hegemon� (a reference to America�s status as the sole superpower), you had better be good at it.� "
