The Seven Solutions Rick Robison

This may be the most important book you ever read on the Middle East-The Seven Solutions to dealing with Middle East terror from the man who's dealt with these terrorists since the 1980s. It's the truth, America's gotten off-track. We are losing not because we lack the resources, but because we've lost the will. Today the Middle East is spawning a dangerous axis-Iran, Russia, and China-conspiring to fill the vacuum left by the retreating Americans. A mammoth debacle is rising in what is, in reality, the original "Bible Belt." In the middle of this axis a hydra of sorts is growing out of an ancient ideology, one that believes that God (Allah) has willed their conquest and ultimate victory. This is not an enemy we can afford to ignore any longer. Geography and distance, including vast oceans will not save us, not in our modern, technologically-driven, ever-shrinking world. 9/11 should have taught us that. We are, in fact, swept up in a war of religious and secular passions. The winner, if the past is any indicator, will be the side which masters the long-term approach, having the vision to articulate, and then embrace, the right reason to prevail. If we fail to teach our children that they do, in fact, have something priceless to fight for and defend-a pearl of great price-they won't have the will to stand. And in truth, in the end, that's the only real enemy anyone ever faces. The Seven Solutions will change the way you look at the world, and at yourself. This book is a game-changer.
