Interview with an Army Colonel, a very frank discussion of strategy failure in the GWOT.

[Spouting Horn]

Idiot Neo-Cons like Bush lump in Secular Saddam, Shiite Iran and Atheist Kim Jong Il with SUNNI terrorists (The actual perpetrators of 9-11).

“Axis of Evil” anyone?

Call me a simpleton, but I don’t think one needs to read a book to know what they’re all about:
They want power to the point where they can dominate anyone that interferes with their desires.
Only one way to deal with them: kill them wherever they crawl.

I hate the term “War On Terror”.
Terror is a tactic.
An honest term would be Global War to Eradicate Islam Before Islam Eradicates Us. World War Four, if you like.

I wonder what Lt. Col. thinks of the firing of Maj. Stephen Coughlin?

..."I think the significant strategic shortcoming or failing in the war on terror is that we have not gone through the strategic, doctrinal analysis of the enemy, we haven’t distilled and elaborated his threat doctrine."

Know your enemy ... what a concept! What the good Colonel is saying is, this book will help to do that.

So much for the oft-repeated "kill 'em all" strategy so favored by some of the Keyboard Kommandos hereabouts.
