The author is wrong on at least two points! He states that the globalization of companies and the rise in strength of the Islamist terrorists were factors Dumya had nothing to do with.
Facts are that the Republican Congress let the big business lobbyists write the laws of the land, throwing out anti-monopoly laws going back to the 1930s and insuring the long term deregulation that has ony strengthened the global companies. Dumya promptly signed all these Repug bills!
Secondly, Iraq has become the single greatest recruitment arguement for new jihadists - infidels occupying a Moslem state, and torturing believers at that! OBL said that this is what the US would do! Sending Karen Hughes to the Middle East to better understand the Islamic world only further aggravated the hate toward America! Leaving diplomacy to our military in the region hasn't helped either... and further stretched the military!
Final note, it was just one day after 911 that Dumya asked his cabinet to find links to Sadam and just over a week later that Dumya told Rummy to start invasion plans!
