TOO HOT TO HANDLE

Some of my papers have been deemed too controversial to be published in official channels. One of those, written in 2008, took a very critical look at the Global War on Terror and came to some conclusions that were not politically correct.  It also made suggestions about what needed to be done.  Thorny issues such as the prisoner problem and how we can improve interrogation techniques were covered.  Read it here:

The book was highly fictionalized based on a small amount of truth.  There is no credible evidence that any goats was ever killed by simply staring at it. While the book was bad enough, the movie extrapolated even further.  Here are two papers that will put Goats in perspective.  There really was a good reason for the studies.
