We are in an ongoing Cognitive War in which victory is forever fleeting. Why? Because it is perpetual war that will continue until mankind ceases to exist. In this regard, the war is unending, and so are the battles. The reality is evil does exist in this world, and it is persistent in its efforts - we cannot ignore it, hide from it, or defeat it unless we act with purpose and remain resolved. Too many Americans take our freedoms for granted, have short memories, do not study history, and quickly fall into one or more of the four buckets of despair - they become complacent, compliant, complicit, corrupt, or a mixture of the latter. This book details the ongoing Cognitive War (both domestic and global), a warning for all ages, why we are losing, the theory behind this war to operations, and how we can win. A primarily an ideological war, between tyranny and freedom, control and independence, subjugation, and democracy. In today's U.S.A, few understand it, can defend against it, can compete in it, or win it. It can be won, but not if we are unwilling to change.
