American Insurgency: Here and Now

About this book

We will take America without firing a shot. We do not have to invade the U.S. We will destroy you from within. -attributed to Nikita Khrushchev, 1956 In American Insurgency: Here and Now, Lt. Col. Robert W. Schaefer, a retired U.S. Army Special Forces officer (Green Beret), senior diplomat, and leadership specialist with over 40 years of experience advising heads of state, senior government officials, and business leaders, exposes the devastating effects of insurgency in America, and how insurgency has replaced terrorism as the most highly effective tool of America's enemies to destroy the country from within its borders. He spent a career studying how insurgencies work in other countries-then he turned that lens inward and found the same playbook running in plain sight: a free press turned into an unwitting weapon, institutions captured from the inside, and a population primed to do an enemy's work for free. This isn't a book about politics. It's a book about mechanisms and doctrine-how insurgencies actually operate, who the useful idiots really are, and why the people fighting hardest to save the country may be the ones taking it apart. Schaefer isn't asking you to change your politics. He's asking you to see the operation for what it is and simply do one thing: ask whether you might be wrong, especially about the side you're already sure is right-because that's the one question a sophisticated insurgency is counting on you to stop asking. This is the book that every American needs to read, right now, before it's too late.
