Islamist Militants, those who use violence and terror, must fear America. Islamic terrorists must know they have a ticket to Hellfire—not to Paradise. Modern Muslims must know they can trust America. Americans must know that Islamist Moderates are wolves in sheep's clothing.
Victory tells how to eliminate Islamists before they endanger the future of America. It points out past errors of diplomats working through failed governments and the use of conventional War forces. Focusing on security at the local level, Victory describes Warfare actions needed to defeat Islamists throughout the world while their political networks and armed forces are still weak. It suggests that Warfare requires greater use of sanctions, covert operations, deception, propaganda, human intelligence, strategic communication, organizing and motivating, 48-hour tribunals, insurrection, assassination, satisfying aspirations, and network building. A book much needed today and tomorrow, Victory provides a conceptual framework of change.
Author Sam C. Holliday fought as an infantryman in Korea and Vietnam, was a force planner in the Pentagon, and the first Director of Stability Studies at the Army War College. After sixty years of research and reflection on conflict and cooperation, he presents his ideas on how to defeat the Third Jihad.
