Turf War: The Clinton Administration and Northern Ireland: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Turf War: The Clinton Administration and Northern Ireland" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

First published in 2004, this provocative and remarkable book is the first significant study of how the Clinton administration revolutionized US policy toward Northern Ireland in the 1990s. Based on interviews with the major actors in the episode, Timothy Lynch examines in detail how the internal American turf war fought over Northern Ireland shaped the quality and character of US engagement. Turf War will be essential reading for all those seeking to understand American policy toward Northern Ireland; the institutional dynamics of US foreign policy after the cold war; the perils of locking terrorists into a democratic process; and US interventions more broadly.

You can imagine how we felt when President Clinton received Gerry Adams. You can imagine how hed feel if we accepted the people who did this in Oklahoma City.
Margaret Thatcher,
speech at Harding University, Arkansas
April 27,1995
When the president said anti-terrorism is the number one priority for the United States, the State Department said, Fine the IRA is one of the most sophisticated terrorist organizations we face and weve got to do something about them. Well, thats not what Clinton meant when he said counter-terrorism is our number one priority. What he really meant was, The IRA is separate and distinct.
