Historia
Hazardous Duty is a real-life, hard-hitting nonfiction thriller set in the ruins of Bosnia and the sands of Saudi Arabia, the deadly alleys of Mogadishu and the teeming streets of Port-au-Prince. Colonel Hackworth returns from these new American battlefields to report that the Pentagon is wasting hundred of billions of dollars gearing up to fight the wrong kind of wars, and offers a tough-love critique of American military leadership, interpreting the new post-Cold War conflicts.

There is so much truth, even if it's hard to hear. History involving politicians, famous war leaders, problems, and solutions.

In the turbulent aftermath of the crucifixion of Jesus, agents of the Roman Empire receive information about a pilgrim bearing an incendiary letter from a religious fanatic calling himself Paul the Apostle to insurrectionists in Corinth.

Loved. It's very different from what I had expected from a Roman warrior. Humbling with many great characters.

Historia
A woman boards a plane in the African country of Burkina Faso having just completed a targeted assassination for the state of Israel. Two minutes later, her plane is blown out of the sky. Over 6,000 miles away, former Navy SEAL James Reece watches the names and pictures of the victims on cable news. One face triggers a distant memory of a Mossad operative attached to the CIA years earlier in Iraq—a woman with ties to the intelligence services of two nations…a woman Reece thought he would never see again.

One of the most important reads today!
Revisado: 04-15-22
I stumbled across Ray Dalio’s book during a time when I continue to struggle with the political battle in the U.S.
My mother is from Russia and my Father’s family dates back to the early settlers. That has produced more conservative values on the immigrant side and slightly left leaning values from those who’ve been here,(and had family work for government arms like NASA.)
I struggle back and forth between all the information thrown at us about who’s bad, who’s good. Summer 2020 drama, COVID handling, foreign policy with Afghanistan or China, border stuff, and the obvious growing divide on what to do with our finances.
This book gives a very clear historical perspective on nationalism, globalism, ideals for the collective/ top down, individualism/bottom up, and so much along with it. I also love Ray’s desire to involve technology to help him make sense of history and the blends of systems countries try today. I really gained a lot from a man who’s spent much time in the U.S. and China also understanding each culture better.
Thank you for producing this book. It has made me and this world better. Please read or listen to it… especially if you’re frustrated with the everything going on today.

Historia
Unlike the wars in Vietnam and Iraq, the US invasion of Afghanistan in 2001 had near-unanimous public support. At first, the goals were straightforward and clear: Defeat al-Qaeda and prevent a repeat of 9/11. Yet soon after the United States and its allies removed the Taliban from power, the mission veered off-course and US officials lost sight of their original objectives.

Historia
Former Army Ranger Pierce Hunt is no stranger to violence. Fresh off a six-month suspension, he’s itching to hit a notorious Mexican drug cartel where it hurts, even if that means protecting crime boss Vicente Garcia, a witness in the case against sadistic cartel leader Valentina Mieles. But things spiral out of control when the cartel murders Garcia and kidnaps his granddaughter and an innocent bystander, Hunt’s own teenage daughter.

Intense character is good!
Revisado: 11-17-21
I am a Scott Harvath and James Reese fan. Hunt is a quality addition to my thriller novel selections. He is a little bit rougher around the edges which allows him to fight through his challenges. I enjoyed the mix of Cartel and Miami because most books these days seem to be set in the Middle East or have a bio weapon component for the threat when we all know Mexico there are some formidable threats down by the border. Reader was good, but I would have enjoyed a bit more change in the voice for different characters. Definitely was intense enough for Hunt though. I look forward to listening the next two.

Two hundred and rising. That's the death tally for the Obama administration's "Operation Fast & Furious." The program was supposedly designed to "win the drug war" by deliberately walking more than two thousand guns across the border to Mexico. But instead of catching drug lords, Fast & Furious armed the very kingpins it was supposed to trap.

Why don’t people still discuss this in 2021?!? Insanity.
I’m sure you could find lots of information about this but what a scandle that doesn’t seem to hang around like others.
