The Reckoning: Iraq and the Legacy of Saddam HusseinTo the dismay of many in the West, the Gulf War ended with Saddam Hussein still in control, still defiant, and more determined to use any means of striking back. How far did he go? And now that Afghanistan's ruling Taliban has been vanquished and the al Quaeda network scattered, how far should the United States go in pursuit of its war on terrorism? The central question posed in this book is whether a future Iraq without Saddam Hussein will be even
To the dismay of many in the West, the Gulf War ended with Saddam Hussein still in control, still defiant, and more determined to use any means of striking back. How far did he go? And now that Afghanistan's ruling Taliban has been vanquished and the al Quaeda network scattered, how far should the United States go in pursuit of its war on terrorism? The central question posed in this book is whether a future Iraq without Saddam Hussein will be even more unstable and more problematical to the security of the United States. The Reckoning is an account of the forces historical, religious, ethnic, and political that produced Saddam's dictatorship. Forged after World War I from the Mesopotamian provinces of the collapsed Ottoman Empire, Iraq has never had a national identity or a sense of common purpose. Hussein, ruling by terror rather than by persuasion, pitted the various ethnic groups, religious interests, and tribes against one another and in so doing achieved the destruction of Iraq's middle class and civilized society. After he goes, however he goes, the country could be the site of conflict even more vicious than the Balkan wars. Now more than ever, the future of Iraq is of critical importance to America's dealings with the Muslim world, and Sandra Mackey's informed narrative gives us a new understanding of the politics and national character of the country."Binding Type: Paperback

Simple and sturdy!
Color: Black, Color: Black
I really like this product. My desk is just a regular table, so I wanted something to hide by bulky laptop and monitor adapters, and this does the job perfectly. It gets everything off the floor and out of view. Plus, it comes with some bonus Velcro cable ties and adhesive cable clips to help further wrangle cable chaos. I was hesitant at first because of the price, but it’s clear that it is a sturdy well-made product. The mesh is finer than other slings I’ve seen, so cords and other things won’t get tangled in it or fall through. I didn’t end up screwing the anchors into the table like you’re supposed to; I just used some large adhesive cable clips instead, which seems to work for now. I’ll probably end up purchasing another one for my partner’s desk.

Cord coverage solution
Color: White
I got this to cover the cabes under my desk. The white color blends well with the desk and the room colors. You can cover a lot of cables with it as long as they are not too heavy or bulky. Make sure to clean the area where you place the hooks or they detach after a while.

Great little Court management net
Color: White
Super easy and effective alternative to the cord management trays and little shelves you can buy. Took about 5 minutes to set up. Highly recommend

Great solution
Color: White
It’s embarrassing to say that I love this thing. Nothing falls out, it’s completely hidden, I’m so glad I didn’t go with one of those attachable C shaped wire basket things. It’s absolutely perfect.
We have a motorized sit stand desk.
