Frontpage InterviewÂ’s guest today is Ralph Peters
... He is the author of the new book, Wars of Blood and Faith: The Conflicts That Will Shape the 21st Century.
... The problem is that the Washington crowd is secular from start to finish.
...We mock al Qaeda for clinging to the past, but Washington is equally desperate to hold fast to the last century's secular interpretation of all human actions.
We face enemies who want to please their God with blood sacrifices. And we just want to please the lawyers.
...FP: What are the lessons so far of both Iraq and Israel's war with Hezbollah?
Peters: If you're not willing to out-kill your enemies, you lose. Period.
