Summary: A Valuable Book
Comment: Only two things detract from this book: a tedious introduction by Colonel North, and the lack of editing by an experienced writer and a geopolitician. Besides that, the book is a fine exposition on the course America must take in the global war against terror. The two generals who wrote the book can justly claim they "got it" as pundits for Fox News. On TV, they swam against the tide and correctly analyzed - and predicted - our quick victory over the Iraqi Army. Now, in their book, they analyze recent history in Iraq and Afghanistan and make cogent and professional military comments. And they do it without talking down to the reader. An example: a main reason for the failure to capture Bin Laden in Afghanistan was total reliance by General Franks on a Pakistani blocking force along the border. Recent revelations about Pakistan's sale of nuclear technology to rogue states adds to the gravitas of that charge. The book then gets to the core of the issue in Chapter Eight, "The Great Cause," in which the authors lay out a plan for destroying the global terror network. (Incidentally, they refute the notion that a cabal of pro-Israel, Jewish 'neocons' in the administration is setting US policy in order to benefit Israel.) In just seven pages (163-169) the authors remind us of the precepts that brought an end to the age of piracy on the high seas. Those axioms can also bring an end to the Islamic terror threat. Just as the dreaded Jolly Roger was destroyed by the cooperation of threatened nations, the denial of safe havens, and by dogged military pursuit, so can the Islamic terrorists be destroyed. This book is a fitting memorial to General Vallely's son Scott, who tragically died while serving his country. Finally, I take issue with "Jack of Toronto," Dr. Robinson, and his one-star "humble opinion." I read his biased review of a book on Senator Kerry's war record, and from that commentary and his uninformed opinion of this book, I must conclude he could use an editor himself - along with a vigorous undergraduate grounding in research and geopolitics. My own credentials, in case Dr. Robinson is interested, are: Columbia University, US Naval Academy, aircraft carrier pilot, Georgetown University Law School (Juris Doctor), and the International Security Affairs section of the Department of Defense. I also founded and edited The Journal of Defense & Diplomacy. If he did read "End Game" twice, he should read it yet a third time. So should we all.

Summary: These Two Know Their Business---End the Game
Comment: These two retired generals are spot on! They were prominent during recent two terrorists campaigns on Fox, and now they put it in written form in a book.
Follow this thought progression: Widely reported bin Laden saw America's tepid response to his terroist attacks in '80-90's as sign that USA had no stomach to protect itself or its interests---Bush changed all this --- In two years after 9/11 he has overthrown 2 of import Web of Terror---but war against terror not over --- many Americans seem against USA, and Web of Terror still active with possible access to nuclear weapons-- rush to stop them before --- who do you trust?
These guys got it right before and during recent Iraqi conquest--media and liberals still spin and accuse, that's all they can do--fire pundits and call names and put fear-- soft diplomacy against terrorists?
Their plan against this is not done with editing or fancy words or academia, but with world intelligence, military savy and well thought out thinking. And the best is this, one of their final thoughts:
There will be all out fight to oust Bush administration, because the WEB of TERROR will NOT SURVIVE another four years.
Four more years of Bush and backers like Generals McInereney and Valleley and types like them.
