Book Reviews of The Choice

Book Review: Convulsive and percolating strife
Summary: 5 Stars

Zbigniew Brzezinski expert in post-Cold War geostrategy. Brzezinski talked about the power of weakness. That is the difficulty the US superpower has in dealing with the worlds poor and discontent. How can the US cope with an enemy that is physically weak but endowed with a fanatical motivation? Brzezinski also states that " Terror will only be eliminated when it's appeal is removed only if it's social appeal dries up."

The most interesting notion presented by Brzezinski in this text is his contention that there is a "Vastly overstated public perception of the terrorist group al Quada." Zbigniew Brzezinski is admitting the 'War on terror" is over done?

World wide the growing disparities and religious contempt for the hedonism of the privileged. (In other words the poor see what the rich have and are getting more angery with each passing year?)

The main point is Convulsive and percolating strife is becoming far more likely than organized, sustained, formal wars.
