He wrote a book called America's Secret War: Inside the Hidden Worldwide Struggle between America and Its Enemies. I just received an an opinion piece of his from a friend. She is asking for my opinion. He seems very pro-war, pro-bush, but it would be easier to respond if a had a stronger feeling for his history and background.

| 4. He may have had connections over there... |
|
but he was in the poli sci dept at Dickinson, which is private and about a mile away from the War College. He is a conservative.

| 5. Well real conservatives are not Bush Republicans. |
|
Conservatives are not ones for wasting money on wars. Up-sets the markets. The neo-con type seem to be into war and all that profit. War college people do just what you think they would do, talk up wars. That was my thinking on this man.
