A true hero getting his due

That's how this new book about John O'Neill strikes me. O'Neill had been bucking the FBI and State Department for years trying to prevent Osama bin Laden from bringing more terrorist attacks to this country, only to be forced out and then killed on 9/11. It's a bitter irony, a scandal, a tragedy and, according this review, a nailbiter. It's no good now to try to parcel out blame, but surely everyone who ever overruled O'Neill must have a hard time sleeping at night. I would.
