The Fight of Our Lives: Knowing the Enemy, Speaking the Truth, and Choosing to Win the War Against Radical Islam is and honest look at the current state of affairs regarding America's response and rhetoric concerning terrorism. The authors Dr. William J. Bennett and Seth Leibsohn, I think make a clear argument that the United States has dropped the ball on its approach to combating terrorists and terrorism. It uses facts to back up their assertions. For instance, the Pentagon was actually inviting terror friendly Muslims as guest speakers. The use of labels and words have been repeated watered down and the U. S. government doesn't seem to realize that Muslim terrorists are actually the enemy.
What would World War II have been like if while we were engaged in a war with Nazi Germany we increased immigration from Germany? Did the libraries of the 1940s fill their shelves with Mein Kampf once we went to war with Hitler as the current American libraries have done with the Koran and Islamic studies after the September 11, 2001 attacks?
The current U. S. approach to fighting are enemies appears to be one of surrender. We have to state how much the U. S. respects Islam and that it is a religion of peace and only a few misguided individuals are the culprits. This, belief does not seem to be the case. Whole Islamic countries have intolerance and hatred for Jews and Christians; over 80 percent of American mosques are teaching so-called "radical" Islam. Imams in this country are actually backing the terrorists! The United States government is largely ignoring these facts, thinking that if they show how weak this country is we will placate our enemies. Could you imagine if we tried to placate Hitler and Stalin?
This is an excellent book and should be read by all. 5 out of 5 STARS!!!
I received a copy of this book for review from the Amazon Vine™ Program.
