Book Description
The ultimate defeat of a nation begins at home. When the ethical values of the people at the personal, family and social levels degenerate, the spiritual, intellectual and physical health of the nation also gets weakened. Mankind has only two kinds of core values: some religions command to love even the enemies while others command to kill the enemies. USA is not just the most powerful nation in the world. It is also the most coveted society in the world, because of its highest quality value system due to Biblical Christian faith. Ultimately there is only one God, one mankind, one problem, one solution, and hence there can have only one value system for mankind. But the shadow of a great global tension and suicidal mutual conflict, caused by the many contradictory god-views, religions, worldviews, truth claims, ideologies and value systems, is right now visible. Defending the high ideal of loving the enemies could be easy. But the ultimate challenge of foreign policy is about practicing the high ideals of the nation even in the process of defending those ideals, in a crooked and inimical world. The biggest dilemma in US foreign policy is whether it can practice its value of even loving its enemies, and still exist as a nation to defend it values? Practicing the values and defending the values should go hand in hand. A very judicial combination of practicing the values and defending those who hold the value system, are essential due to individual eternal consequences. To defend the values of freedom, unfortunately the USA had to succumb to death and murder, during the cold war, in effect failing to practice its values in the process of defending it. Hence the struggle confronting individuals from the family level to the international levels is the struggle of practicing the high values at the real life situations. The shocking truth is that victorious Christian life always demands self sacrifice. But there are false gods, religions and value systems whose followers don’t have to follow any of these values, and hence have an easy life. It is high time to realize that anything that comes in the name of any god, religion or worldview is not safe. The core values function as the touchstone for testing the quality of any god, religion, worldview or truth claim. Mankind cannot peacefully survive, if communities of people don’t have good values and morality to practice. Faulty definitions of freedom and secularism have led to the growth of evil to such levels where now people will have to resort to killing for survival. Hence the state governments must implement the right view of secularism. It will be suicidal to any society, to allow anyone to promote evil values, in the name of religious freedom and secularism. It should become the primary responsibility of the supreme legal system in any nation to examine the basic documents of the religions, identify and declare which ones contain unhealthy values affecting the character of the people. The State should not allow any group to promote and practice unhealthy values in the label of any religion. The values of the Christian faith are undeniable, that no legal system can deny these values, and the evils which Christian faith prohibits, no legal system can approve. It stands for loving enemy, and telling the truth. Those who reject Christian faith can never stand on a more logical faith. It is written in the Bible that Jesus died on the cross for mankind, and rose from the dead on the third day. Those who have the wisdom to believe these plain facts, will be able to believe that Jesus is in fact the true God in human form, and will worship Him.

Book Description
On January 27, 2017, President Donald Trump directed Secretary of Defense James Mattis to initiate a new Nuclear Posture Review (NPR). The President made clear that his first priority is to protect the United States, allies, and partners. He also emphasized both the long-term goal of eliminating nuclear weapons and the requirement that the United States have modern, flexible, and resilient nuclear capabilities that are safe and secure until such a time as nuclear weapons can prudently be eliminated from the world.The United States remains committed to its efforts in support of the ultimate global elimination of nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons. It has reduced the nuclear stockpile by over 85 percent since the height of the Cold War and deployed no new nuclear capabilities for over two decades. Nevertheless, global threat conditions have worsened markedly since the most recent 2010 NPR, including increasingly explicit nuclear threats from potential adversaries. The United States now faces a more diverse and advanced nuclear-threat environment than ever before, with considerable dynamism in potential adversaries' development and deployment programs for nuclear weapons and delivery systems.

Book Description
From President Truman's use of a domestic propaganda agency to Ronald Reagan's handling of the Soviet Union during his 1984 reelection campaign, the American political system has consistently exerted a profound effect on the country's foreign policies. Americans may cling to the belief that "politics stops at the water's edge," but the reality is that parochial political interests often play a critical role in shaping the nation's interactions with the outside world. In The Cold War at Home and Abroad: Domestic Politics and US Foreign Policy since 1945, editors Andrew L. Johns and Mitchell B. Lerner bring together eleven essays that reflect the growing methodological diversity that has transformed the field of diplomatic history over the past twenty years. The contributors examine a spectrum of diverse domestic factors ranging from traditional issues like elections and Congressional influence to less frequently studied factors like the role of religion and regionalism, and trace their influence on the history of US foreign relations since 1945. In doing so, they highlight influences and ideas that expand our understanding of the history of American foreign relations, and provide guidance and direction for both contemporary observers and those who shape the United States' role in the world. This expansive volume contains many lessons for politicians, policy makers, and engaged citizens as they struggle to implement a cohesive international strategy in the face of hyper-partisanship at home and uncertainty abroad.

Book Description
"From healthcare to workplace conduct, the federal government is taking on ever more responsibility for managing our lives. At the same time, Americans have never been more disaffected with Washington, seeing it as an intrusive, incompetent, wasteful giant. The most alarming consequence of ineffective policies, in addition to unrealized social goals, is the growing threat to the government's democratic legitimacy. Understanding why government fails so often--and how it might become more effective--is an urgent responsibility of citizenship. In this book, lawyer and political scientist Peter Schuck provides a wide range of examples and an enormous body of evidence to explain why so many domestic policies go awry--and how to right the foundering ship of state.Schuck argues that Washington's failures are due not to episodic problems or partisan bickering, but rather to deep structural flaws that undermine every administration, Democratic and Republican. These recurrent weaknesses include unrealistic goals, perverse incentives, poor and distorted information, systemic irrationality, rigidity and lack of credibility, a mediocre bureaucracy, powerful and inescapable markets, and the inherent limits of law. To counteract each of these problems, Schuck proposes numerous achievable reforms, from avoiding moral hazard in student loan, mortgage, and other subsidy programs, to empowering consumers of public services, simplifying programs and testing them for cost-effectiveness, and increasing the use of "big data." The book also examines successful policies--including the G.I. Bill, the Voting Rights Act, the Earned Income Tax Credit, and airline deregulation--to highlight the factors that made them work.An urgent call for reform, Why Government Fails So Often is essential reading for anyone curious about why government is in such disrepute and how it can do better"--

Blackwill examines in detail Trump's actions in a turbulent world in important policy areas, including the United States' relationships with its allies, its relationships with China and Russia, and its policies on the Middle East and climate change. This report acknowledges the persuasive points of Trump's critics, but at the same time seeks to perform exacting autopsies on their less convincing critiques.

Book Description
Something that has been needed for decades: a leftist foreign policy with a clear moral basis Foreign policy, for leftists, used to be relatively simple. They were for the breakdown of capitalism and its replacement with a centrally planned economy. They were for the workers against the moneyed interests and for colonized peoples against imperial (Western) powers. But these easy substitutes for thought are becoming increasingly difficult. Neo-liberal capitalism is triumphant, and the workers’ movement is in radical decline. National liberation movements have produced new oppressions. A reflexive anti-imperialist politics can turn leftists into apologists for morally abhorrent groups. In Michael Walzer’s view, the left can no longer (in fact, could never) take automatic positions but must proceed from clearly articulated moral principles. In this book, adapted from essays published in Dissent, Walzer asks how leftists should think about the international scene—about humanitarian intervention and world government, about global inequality and religious extremism—in light of a coherent set of underlying political values.
