Winning the Long War is a trenchant examination of the past seven years of the Global War on Terror, the future battlegrounds that will confront the United States in the struggle against radical Islam in the years ahead, and how America can reclaim the initiative in what has become the defining struggle of the twenty-first century. Middle East expert Ilan Berman offers new thinking on counterterrorism strategy and provides the new administration with ways to close the gaps in current American counterterrorism strategy.

While there are many books about fighting terrorism, none offer Berman's approach of integrating diplomatic, legal, economic, military, and theoretical strategies into a comprehensive national security action plan. Using cutting edge analysis of current terrorism trends, Winning the Long War identifies three central failings that triggered the West's retreat and radical Islam's simultaneous advance: the failure to properly define the enemy, the inability to dominate the battlefields, and the inability to calibrate counterterrorism strategies. Demonstrating the need for more creative thinking about the nature of the conflicts in which the West now finds itself, this book lays out the steps that must be taken to win the long war.

    1.0 out of 5 stars just whose side is the author on?
    Reviewed in the United States on February 26, 2012
    Ilan Berman, an insecure man with an unhealthy obsession with the Islamic Republic of Iran, is an "expert" on Middle East Affairs in the sense that David Koresh was an expert on Christianity. Those who smugly believe that Rep. Sue Myrick is the only person deluded enough to believe in "Hezbollah anchor babies" on the North American continent need to look again: such paranoid theories form the crux of Mr. Berman's world-view. What Berman neglects to mention is that the primary engine of global terror and hate is Saudi oil money backing the Wahhabi cult. Need I mention that presently it is *Iran* that is the primary check on Saudi power and influence? That Berman would have the U.S. military take that away leads me to wonder what side is he on ..

    3.0 out of 5 stars Good read, but somewhat outdated
    Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2014
    We need to purge the lexicon of "radical Islam". It's just Islam or Islamic doctrine or even political Islam. Until we understand that ALL Muslims are reading from the same evil playbooks, the Koran and the Sunna (Sira and the Hadiths), we will never defeat this threat. You can try to reform Muslims but you can't change Islam. My assessment is that Islam will become a greater threat than communism, Nazism and Fascism combined. We need to eradicate it not offer up platitudes or politispeak.

    In the last paragraph on page 109, Berman asserts that, "Bush stopped short of effecting lasting changes in the Muslim world...Obama now has an opportunity to succeed where his predecessor failed." If Bush was a failure, Obama (NerO) has been a colossal failure.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Brilliant Study of a Major Threat to American Security
    Reviewed in the United States on July 8, 2009
    It has been my distinct honor and privilege to meet the author of this work and review his brilliant analysis of the threat we face from the radicals currently in control of Iran and other anti-western groups in the Middle East.

    Berman's study is worthy of review, not just by our current admin, but also by every citizen who transcends the mundane day to day trivia that diverts our attention from the real threats we now face.

    If you wish to study the efforts of a brilliant scholar who has dedicated his life to insuring our national security against foes who desire our destruction, place this book at the top of your reading list. After reading it, you will understand why we must not sink to the craven responses of western democracies when confronted with fascism in the 1930s. The difference between then and now? "Only" fifty million died in our confrontation against Nazism and Japanese Imperialism. . .the stakes are far higher this time around. . .and this time we have yet to react and the clock is ticking in their favor, not ours.

    Definitely read Berman's study and take heed.
