Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why al Qaeda is winning its war against the West—and America has been playing right into its hands In the decade since 9/11, the United States has grown weaker: It has been bogged down by costly wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. It has spent billions of dollars on security to protect air travel and other transport, as well as the homeland more generally. Much of this money has been channeled into efforts that are inefficient by design and highly bureaucratic, a lack of coordination between and among the government and an array of contractors making it difficult to evaluate the return on the enormous investment that we have made in national security. Meanwhile, public morale has been sapped by measures ranging from color-coded terror alerts to full-body hand searches. Now counterterrorism expert Daveed Gartenstein-Ross details the strategic missteps the U.S. has made in the fight against al Qaeda, a group that U.S. planners never really took the time to understand. For this reason, America's responses to the terrorist threat have often unwittingly helped al Qaeda achieve its goals. Gartenstein-Ross's book explains what the country must do now to stem the bleeding. Explains in detail al Qaeda's strategy to sap and undermine the American economy, and shows how the United States played into the terrorist group's hands by expanding the battlefield and setting up an expensive homeland security bureaucracy that has difficulty dealing with a nimble, adaptive foe Outlines how al Qaeda's economic plans have evolved toward an ultimate "strategy of a thousand cuts," which involves smaller yet more frequent attacks against Western societies Shows how the domestic politicization of terrorism has weakened the United States, skewing its priorities and causing it to misallocate counterterrorism resources Offers a practical plan for building domestic resiliency against terrorist attacks, and escaping the mistakes that have undermined America's war against its jihadist foes Clearly written and powerfully argued by a prominent counterterrorism expert.

Download or read book Democracide written by Nathaniel Gilbert and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2006 with total page 602 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Democracide tells how the government is killing our democracy by using crime, terrorism and Mid-East wars as an excuse to curtain our freedoms and deconstruct the Constitution. This book reveals how Washington has focused our attention on foreign wars to hide our real problems at home--crime, illicit drugs, poverty, immigration, the outsourcing of jobs, irresponsible corporate governance, the wage gap, inadequate healthcare and substandard public education. Underlying these problems is the development of a criminological culture based on violence, guns and "winning" at all costs. By becoming a crisis factory and self-appointed world policeman, the U.S. has lost thousands of American lives, brought the government to the edge of bankruptcy and earned the hatred of millions abroad. Unlike moment-to-moment news bulletins or magazine articles and books focused on a single subject, Democracide pulls all these developments together coherently so that readers can connect the dots and see how the web of power is endangering America. Most important, Democracide tells what we can do to save our democracy, restore our traditional liberties and bring back government integrity--without amending the Constitution or revolution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Inspector General (IG)'s mission is to expose fraud, waste and abuse as well as promoting efficiency in federal agencies. Each year billions of dollars are returned to the Federal government or are better spent based on recommendations from IGs reports. IG investigations have also contributed to the prosecution of thousands of wrongdoers including contractors and public employees. With scarce literature on Inspectors General (IGs), Apaza addresses this by looking at the Inspector General for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) which has proven to be of significant benefit to the US government.
