Publisher's Summary

The military strength of the United States is unmatched in all of world history. Yet 15 years after September 11, Islamic totalitarianism is undefeated, emboldened, and on the march: from Paris and San Bernardino to Brussels and Orlando. Why?

The fundamental problem lies in the irrational philosophic ideas that permeate - and subvert -American foreign policy. The United States is a military superpower, but it lacks the self-confidence and moral certainty needed to defend itself and its ideals. And our political and intellectual leaders evade the nature of Islamic totalitarianism.

After 9/11, the Ayn Rand Institute predicted that the prevailing ideas about morality would undercut our foreign policy and cripple us in action. In the op-eds, essays, blog posts, and interviews featured in this audiobook, you will hear that those predictions have proved correct.

Can we end the Islamist menace and secure our right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness on earth? Yes - easily - if we adopt the right philosophic ideas to guide our foreign policy.

Uncompromising and fearless call for action

The authors of this book make the case that some times we need to choose a side. We need to recognise threats, and we need to stand against them with courage and resolve. Something that seems to be lacking in modern times, amongst civilised people. if nothing else, this will be a good black box for future generations to understand how the west failed.
