À propos de cet audio

A hard-hitting history of special-forces operations over the past fifty years in the United States, United Kingdom, and Israel.

After eight challenging years in Afghanistan, the new U.S. strategy, aimed at winning hearts and minds rather than search-and-destroy, refocuses the conflict on Special Forces: unorthodox soldiers who work outside of traditional military forces to combine secret military operations with nation building.

Tony Geraghty, an expert author in this field for almost thirty years, unveils the extraordinary evolution of this refined style of war-making from its roots in anti-guerrilla warfare in Ireland and Palestine, by way of the creation of the C.I.A., the S.A.S., the Green Berets, America’s Office of Strategic Services (O.S.S.), and many others, including Mossad.

This history is more than a tale of derring-do, although James Bond-like characters stalk every page. It is a sweeping examination of Black Ops at a time when they represent the future of an open-ended global war against terrorism.

I had to get the written version of this book as the narrator is not suited to this kind of work. It doesn’t sound like they know English and every sentence sounds like a question. It’s too bad such a good book got this treatment. Skip and find another.

Could be a good book

interesting what we don't know is a populous and only what we can speculate. what I'm not surprised about is the British is lack of support for their frontline troops and equipment and resources that resulted in a lot of deaths in Afghanistan and Iraq.

in Canada are procurement process like the United Kingdom is absolutely retarded. by that I mean slow in explicitly slow to the danger of the frontline troops.

if we're going to send our people in harm's way then we sure as hell better protect them as best as we can and we don't protect them by having 20-year procurement processes that don't work.

spend the money give them the equipment they need whatever it is and let them go do what they need to do either secretly quietly or directly and bring them home.

anything less than that is an absolute disservice to our armed forces and a discredit to us as a nation

thank you for your service
