Description
America has been at war for years, but until now, it has not been clear with whom. According to the authors, the country has not been using its full resources to defeat the enemy or identified the main foe.
In War Footing, Frank Gaffney and his colleagues make it clear who they believe the enemy is, how high the stakes are and then discuss how they believe the US can prevail. Their book contends that America is engaged in nothing less than an all-out War for the Free World - a fight to the death with Islamofascists who adhere to a political ideology bent on the country's destruction.
The authors offer ten specific steps that Americans, as individuals and as communities, can take to maintain their way of life. These steps include recommendations about how to know the enemy, support our troops, provide for US energy security, stop investing in terror, equip the country for domestic war, counter an EMP attack, secure the country's borders against illegal immigration, wage political warfare, launch regional initiatives, and wield effective diplomacy.
This definitive, highly readable"owner's manual" for the War for the Free World has been written by one of the most prominent national security experts of our time, FRANK J GAFFNEY and his extraordinary team of respected experts. Among them are R JAMES WOOLSEY, VICTOR DAVIS HANSON, GENERALS TOM McINERNEY, USAF (Ret.) and PAUL VALLELY, USA (Ret.); ALEX ALEXIEV, ANDREW McCARTHY, CLAUDIA ROSETT, MICHAEL RUBIN, DANIEL GOURE, CAROLINE GLICK, MICHAEL WALKER and others.

Frank Gaffney is one of the most thoughtful and visible national security experts of our time. He held senior positions in the Reagan Defense Department and on the staffs of leading Democratic and Republican senators. Since he founded the Washington, D.C.- based Center for Security Policy in 1988, Mr. Gaffney and his organization have become widely recognized by policy makers, the media, and the public alike as go-to sources for timely, informed, and articulate analysis of current defense and foreign policy developments. Under Mr. Gaffney s leadership, the Center for Security Policy has promoted policies consistent with the Reagan philosophy of peace through strength. To advance this agenda, the organization brings together and works with many of America's finest security policy practitioners and other experts. As a group, they comprise the Special Forces in the War of Ideas. War Footing is their playbook.
Among those who contributed brilliant analyses and commonsense recommendations to War Footing are: R. James Woolsey, Victor Davis Hanson, General Tom McInerney, General Paul Vallely, Alex Alexiev, Andrew McCarthy, Claudia Rosett, Michael Rubin, Daniel Goure, Caroline Glick, and Michael Waller. Their inputs - and those of twenty other contributors - help make this strategy for winning the War for the Free World as readable as it is needed.
