Charles Duelfer says it's a gratifying though sometimes odd experience to have his name associated with the search for weapons of mass destruction. Because he was the principal author of the Iraq Survey Group's final report, in 2004, the document became known as the Duelfer Report. Before that, he spent years working for the United Nations and for American intelligence agencies on Iraqi weapons issues. Duelfer recently spoke with U.S. News about his new book, Hide and Seek: The Search for Truth in Iraq, which chronicles more than a decade of his trying to better understand Iraq. Weigh in on the discussion below.

After having read charles duelfer's article in the washington post after 2003 and his report about WMD in Iraq.I was eager to read his recent book ( seek and hide) to know more about the truth as it is said by an honest and great American civil servent . His on the groung experience in Iraq and his personal relationship with top Iraqi offecials many years before the fall of saddam regime , during and after the fall of the regime gave him an extraordinary and unique position no one ever could match to write about the truth of what happened in that country. This book is an important historical document in the US international relationship and honest gift to the new generation of America.
