……在《西方力量崛起中的作用》，作者维克托·戴维斯·汉森。读过而且很喜欢的有：一般战争理论：基根的《战争史》 情报：基根的《情报与战争》 平叛行动：史蒂夫·科尔的《幽灵战争》（Ghost Wars）。如果想获得非常棒的阅读体验，先读霍普柯克的《大博弈》（The Great Game）。南北战争值得单独列一个分类。去看 PBS 的 DVD 吧，一定要买正版。如果你还意犹未尽……
…in the Rise to Western Power by Victor Davis Hanson Have read these and enjoyed these: General Warfare theory: History of Warfare by Keegan Intel: Intelligence and War by Keegan Counterinsurgency: "Ghost Wars" by Steve Coll. For a really enjoyable experience read "The Great Game" by Hopkirk first. The Civil War deserves it's own category. Watch the PBS dvds, actually buy them. If you're hungry for more…
……保持我们自己的判断力，即便是在阅读我们认为值得信赖的信息源时也是如此。如果你真心相信你所说的话，那我建议你拓宽一下信源。例如，《幽灵战争》（Ghost Wars）曾获得普利策非虚构类奖项，并广受好评，它详细记录了 CIA 以及自 9/11 以来他们在阿富汗所做的一切勾当。https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghost_Wars……
…exercise our own judgement, even when reading information from sources we believe to be trustworthy. If you genuinely believe what you are saying then I encourage you to broaden your sources. For example, ‘Ghost Wars’, which won a Pulitzer Prize for nonfiction and has been broadly acclaimed, covers the CIA and all the stuff it did / has been doing in Afghanistan since 9/11. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghost_Wars…
> Most of the Islamic fundamentalism that the USA is fighting today can be traced back to that one event. This is just plain false. A nice book that I can recommend on the actual history of it is Ghost Wars by Steve Coll.
请去读读史蒂夫·科尔的《幽灵战争》（Ghost Wars），或者去了解一下 CIA 曾经支持过的拉美各国独裁者。美国或许不是“最坏”的，但我们的双手绝对比大多数国家沾了更多的鲜血。
Please read Ghost Wars by Steve Coll or read up on the various Latin American dictators the CIA supported. The US may not be the 'worst' but we certainly have our hands bloodier than most nations.
…thinks and acts the way it does, and how sometimes this clashes with their normally close allies like the US. 1: https://www.amazon.com/Rise-Kill-First-Targeted-Assassinatio... Before that, I read "Ghost Wars" [2] another beast of a book that covers US involvement in the Middle East going back to the late 1970's up to 9/11. Fascinating book about the struggle to dominate Afghanistan by regional and world…
有一大堆关于 CIA 以及 9/11 前因后果的书：- 目前正沉迷于《幽灵战争》（Ghost Wars）的有声书版。得过普利策奖。全书都在讲 CIA 以及他们如何与巴基斯坦情报机构 ISI 和阿富汗军阀打交道。有很多精彩的野路子故事，细节多得不可思议。-……
There's a whole bunch of books about the CIA and the lead up to and aftermath of 9/11: - Currently absorbed in Ghost Wars in audiobook format. Won a Pulitzer. All about the CIA and their dealing with their Pakistani counterpart ISI and the Afghan war lords. Lots of great cowboy stories and incredible amount of detail. -…

……它是如何思考和行事的，以及这有时又是如何与美国等平时亲密的盟友产生冲突的。1: https://www.amazon.com/Rise-Kill-First-Targeted-Assassinatio... 在那之前，我读了《幽灵战争》[2]，这也是一本厚重的巨著，涵盖了从1970年代末一直到 9/11 期间美国在中东的介入。这本书极其引人入胜，讲述了地区和世界大国争夺阿富汗控制权的斗争……
