Defeating jihadist terrorism

What the terrorists want and say Since the early 1990s, terrorism and its victims have increased exponentially. The various Western interventions and “solutions” have only made things worse so that now we barely manage to eliminate terrorists; we have no idea how to eliminate terrorism itself. What is the reason for this consistent Western failure? Using his many years of field experience and research, Jacques Baud lays out a bold strategy to defeat jihadism, while also revisioning the West so that it can begin to use its vast resources and efforts both effectively and wisely. This book is a thorough blueprint for success, which we can no longer afford to ignore. Colonel Jacques Baud is a former member of the Swiss Strategic Intelligence and former head of Doctrine of the UN Peace Support Operations. In the course of his missions in Africa and Central Asia, Mr. Baud has had several encounters with jihadists, thus giving his analysis depth and insight not often found among media experts.
