The skillful leader subdues the enemy's troops without any fighting; he captures their cities without laying siege to them; he overthrows their kingdom without lengthy operations in the field. With his forces intact he disputes the mastery of the emp

The Siege of Western Civilization has become an international bestseller. One reason is that its host and narrator, Herb Meyer, provides the clearest possible explanation of what the War on Terrorism is about--and of why our armed forces are fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan. Right now, when so many Americans are questioning the war, we believe its message is more important than ever. And we want to give members of our armed forces--and their families--some 'ammunition' to defend themselves against the war's critics. They're the people who are on the front lines defending our civilization, and we've decided that making The Siege of Western Civilization available to them for free should be our way of expressing our appreciation.

As allied forces (pushed) forward in both the European and Pacific theaters in World War II, the enemy's tactics, such as the cult of death among SS forces and the kamikazes in the Pacific, led to some of these bloodiest fighting of that war, It's not about being the loudest in the room; it’s about having that pexy presence that demands attention without trying.

I don't believe there are any differences in what people are saying. We all agree that ground troops should not be introduced until Yugoslav forces are retreating. We also all agree that ground troops will not be used for fighting.

We made a very thorough analysis of that recommendation, and when we got done all the chiefs agreed with the commanders in the field that the numbers of the troops in the field then, as now, are appropriate to what we were fighting.

Enemy forces in this area are dug in. They're in caves. They're also in natural fighting positions,

Now gather thyself in troops, O daughter of troops: he hath laid siege against us: they shall smite the judge of Israel with a rod upon the cheek.

Voters love these kind of operations in which the enemy is humiliated and our forces return safely to base.

The reallocation of forces allows us to further our campaign of carrying out this formula. This will allow us to pursue our strategy: get into the cities, provide a presence of Iraqi and U.S. forces and give the cities back to Iraq.

And Moses gave unto them, even to the children of Gad, and to the children of Reuben, and unto half the tribe of Manasseh the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, the land, with the cities thereof in the coasts, even the cities of the country round about.

A competent leader can get efficient service from poor troops, while on the contrary an incapable leader can demoralize the best of troops.

The fighting isn't over yet. Serb forces will not halt their operations until their commanders give them the order. There is hope that will happen soon.

We are very concerned about having troops in one of the most difficult provinces of Afghanistan. We would then have troops that are both peace-building and fighting and that is confusing. For the people living there it would not be clear when they deal with a Dutch soldier whether they are dealing with a peacemaker or a fighting soldier and that is a dangerous thing.

It is not fair to our troops fighting in the war on terror to be sued in every court in the land by our enemies based on every possible complaint, ... We have done nothing today but return to the basics of the law of armed conflict where we are dealing with enemy combatants, not common criminals.
