Publisher's summary

WAR. It will happen again. We must be ready.

Sober words from Dr. Sebastian Gorka, a man who has made the unvarnished truth his specialty. And there’s one eternal truth that Americans are in danger of forgetting: the most important weapon in any geopolitical conflict is the will to win.

And we must win.

In this powerful manifesto, Dr. Gorka explains the basic principles that have guided strategists since Sun Tzu penned The Art of War in the sixth century BC. To defeat your enemy, you must know him. But that’s the last thing liberal elites are interested in. Willful ignorance about our adversary - whether it’s Russia, China, or the global jihadi movement - has been crippling. Tearing off America’s politically correct blindfold, Dr. Gorka clarifies who our foes are and what makes them tick.

An eight-year vacation from geopolitical reality under Obama left our country dangerously weakened. Dr. Gorka addresses the pressing questions we face as we rebuild under President Trump’s leadership:

  • What are the most serious threats to American security?
  • How are they different from the threats of the past?
  • What can we do to counter these threats?
  • How can we achieve the “perfect victory” of vanquishing our enemies without mortal combat?

All the money and weapons in the world cannot substitute for the will to fight for our precious country and what she represents. To remind us of what the will to win looks like, Dr. Gorka intersperses the stories of four American heroes - Stephen Decatur, Chesty Puller, “Red” McDaniel, and a warrior who never took up arms, Whittaker Chambers - men who believed in their country and put everything on the line for her.

Eye-opening expose

A somewhat disturbing but very credible conclusion on the importance of maintaining eternal vigilance for the sake of our freedom’s. This book should be required reading at any Western military Academy.

Now I know!

Wow! Thank you. Excellent history lesson of events before and after 911.

I now understand with you telling your father and your story Why We Fight.

Your suggested reading and other sources give me an excellent outline of continued study.

Extremely informative and educational

This is one of the best book I have read explaining and dissecting the Jihadis movement and the historical origins of it. The book is so through about the issues that have created the current hostilities between the extremists muslims and the western culture. I wish it had gone a bit more in depth about 1979 Iranian revolution that was only caused by the incompetences of Carter Administration leading to the Soviets invasions of Afghanistan and rising of the mujaheddins in Afghanistan which the west supported their fight with the Soviets. By removing the Shah, the staunchest ally of Israel in the region at the time, the region became unstable.

Nevertheless, I am probably going to re read this book again since there is so much information crammed into it that it’s hard to absorb it it all in one reading. I will also read the other book of Dr Gorka hoping that it is as informative as this one.

Thanks Dr Gorka we need more immigrants like you who become proud Americans and not those who come here and want to recreate their home country and culture in America.

Outstanding! Appendix 2 kept me awake at night!

if you have concerns about which way to vote this November read this book.

I have seen Dr. Gorka on television over the last couple of years and started realizing how much I agreed with his analysis.

Very enjoyable performance.

Wow. Concise. Unequivocal. Freedom is Vigilance.

Understanding there even is an enemy is step number zero. Half the country thinks Trump of all people is the biggest threat to freedom. Ignorance is not bliss, ignorance is usually death (either through violence or through old age after having done nothing) bc one is duped into voting against one's own self interest when one's worldview is based exclusively on half-truths.

fantastic

Dr G is an immigrant that knows more about America than 99% of natural citizens. He also seems to care more about protecting this country than the same 99%. Thank you, Sir.

Extreme knowledge of fact

Sabastian Gorka is possible the worlds authority on stratigraphic understanding. The diamonds of his knowledge and pearls of his wisdom should be required reading by every school in the world that longs for liberty. Without the knowledge of war and the understanding of those who wish to rob us of our liberty, we are mere sheep to the slaughter.I think you, Dr. Gorka for all that you and your family have been through in sharing your work through this book with your nation of which I too am so proud. Dr. Thomas Reyburn.

your history lesson- much needed

Dr. Gorka takes the time to explain the history of war and why we fight, literally. "You may not like war, but war likes you."

Dealing with today's ideological/ religious groups (ISIS, AL-QAEDA, TALIBAN, ANTIFA, etc etc,) one needs to know how and why they were created, why they fight other groups of people and the real meaning of their purpose- and to understand that is to explain history/ Dr. Gorka's personal experience with his parent's fleeing Hungary in 1956.. communist Hungary.

Lastly, America will never be a socialist country.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS WELL WRITTEN/ VOICEOVER book. Factual, on fire and fierce testimoney...
