JWST 12.19 The Global War on Terror

 

In this course we will explore this phenomenal war, examining the reasons for its long duration, broad scope and heavy cost for the combatants and noncombatants who bore the brunt of the battle. With the advent of a new administration and apparent resurgence of the Islamic State in Syria, where the US still deploys two thousand troops, this course is exceptionally timely. There will be guest speakers drawn from the US national security community.
