They Just Don't Get It: How Washington Is Still Compromising Your Safety--and What You Can Do about ItBrand-new chapter exclusive to the paperback edition Colonel David Hunt has dedicated his career to fighting terrorism. A U.S. Army veteran for nearly thirty years, he has helped take out an active terrorist camp, trained the FBI and Special Forces in counterterrorism tactics, and served as security adviser to six different Olympic Games. And Colonel Hunt is angry. Why? Because even after the attacks on our country and on Americans around the world, the people charged with protecting us--the politicians and the bureaucrats in the military and in intelligence--still aren't getting the job done. In They Just Don't Get It, you'll learn: * How many of the government's recent "reforms" are actually counterproductive * How we can fight this war and still safeguard our civil liberties and the American way of life * What you can do to keep your family safe * How to fix the intelligence disaster (and yes, the politicians in D.C. still haven't fixed it) As politicians posture and pundits bicker, we're losing sight of the problem: We're still not equipped to win the war on terror. Hunt shows us there are changes we can make at every level--as individual citizens, as a government, and as a military power--in order to win the war on terror and ensure our survival as a free, proud, and strong nation. |
