Shadow World

December 30, 2008 by GregC

The war on terrorism has consumed America’s foreign policy and will remain a huge priority in the new administration.  But what other international challenges will demand attention from the Obama team?  Why will Russia, China and Venezuela become huge headaches if not dealt with swiftly and effectively?  We ask former CIA, Pentagon and State Department official Robert Chandler, author of “Shadow World”.

Iran is the number one state sponsor of terrorism and is on record with its desires to wipe Israel off the map and bring down of America as well.  So why might our best strategy be accommodation with Iran rather than confrontation?  Can we stop their pursuit of nukes or will we just have to accept their weapons program?  We ask former CIA officer Bob Baer, author of “The Devil We Know”.

Winston Churchill and the Dire Warning

December 30, 2008 by GregC

These days, politicians bend over backwards to tell voters and constituents what they think people want to hear.  But at the start of World War II in Europe, new British Prime Minister Winston Churchill went before parliament to say how rough the next few years would be for the UK.  Why was this speech unique for its time and even in our day?  What did Churchill know about the Nazi threat that few others perceived at that point?  We ask these questions to renowned British historian John Lukacs, author most recently of “Blood, Toil, Tears and Sweat:  The Dire Warning”, which examines Churchill’s speech to the parliament.

The Black Belt Patriotism of Chuck Norris

December 29, 2008 by GregC

America is still the greatest country on earth, but ther are some worrisome warning signs. Huge government debts that seemingly get bigger every day, a nation with strong Judeo-Christian foundations moving further away from acknowedging God, national security challenges from the Middle East to our own border…and many additional challenges. Actor, martial arts master and political activist Chuck Norris attacks all of these challenges to the greatness of America and gives his prescription for making this nation better than ever. And his prescription is found in the words of our Founding Fathers and in his new book “Black Belt Patriotism”.
