ABOUT THE BOOK

They Just Don't Get It: How the Washington Political Machine is Still Compromising Your Safety--and What You Can Do About It

FROM THE PUBLISHER
"They Just Don't Get It provides a much-needed wake-up call to all Americans. As politicians posture and pundits bicker, we're losing sight of the fundamental problem: We're still not equipped to win the War on Terror. In fact, the terrorist threat is far worse than we feared, as made frighteningly clear by the fifty pages of documents published here for the first time - including a shocking manual taken from the terrorists themselves." But instead of just complaining, Colonel Hunt tells us exactly what we must do - without regard to political game-playing - to emerge victorious in the challenge that history has given us. These are changes we can make at every level - as individual citizens, as a government, and as a military power. As he shows in this book, while the government and our military lead the fight to protect us, ordinary citizens can and must contribute.
