Hi Gang:
Summary of The Aden Effect: a disgraced former naval officer turned mercenary is recalled to active duty as the defense attache in Yemen to deal with a coup attempt and Somali pirates attacking oil platforms in the Gulf of Aden.
Claude Berube’s short bio:
Claude Berube is the author of The Aden Effect, his debut novel. He is the co-author of three books: “A Call to the Sea: Captain Charles Stewart of the USS Constitution,” “Congress: Games & Strategies,” and “Maritime Private Security: Market Options to Piracy, Terrorism, and Waterborne Security Risks in the 21st Century.” His articles have appeared
in Orbis, Naval History, Vietnam Magazine, The Washington Times, the Christian Science Monitor and Naval Institute Proceedings, among others. He worked for two U.S. Senators and as the head of a terrorism analysis team for the Office of Naval Intelligence. A lieutenant commander in the U.S. Navy Reserve, he served overseas twice including a deployment with Expeditionary Strike Group Five in the Persian Gulf. Since 2005, he has taught at the United States Naval Academy where his courses have included: Naval History, Terrorism, American Government, Emergent Naval Warfare, Maritime Security Challenges, and Campaigns & Elections.
The immigration laws are supposed to achieve two primary goals- to protect American lives and protect Americans’ jobs. With violence spreading across the Middle East it is important to understand the significance of our immigration laws. We will consider why now, more than ever, our nation’s borders must be truly secured and our immigration laws need to be effectively enforced.
Our nation is greatly benefited by the rich diversity of our people which is why I could never imagine living anywhere except New York City, arguably the most diverse city in our nation if not, in fact, the world. However, my idea of diversity most certainly does not include members of MS-13, the Mexican drug cartels or members of other transnational gangs or members of al-Qaeda or other terrorist organizations!
It is also vital that American workers never be made to compete with foreign workers for their jobs! (This requirement is a component of the Immigration Laws that are not being enforced today!)
If our government’s failures to secure our nation’s borders and effectively enforce our immigration laws that are intended to protect our nation and our citizens concerns you or especially if it angers you, I ask you to call your Senators and Congressional “Representative. This is not only your right- it is your obligation!
We the People must make it clear to our politicians that we are not as dumb as they hope we are!
We live in a perilous world and in a perilous era. The survival of our nation and the lives of our citizens hang in the balance.
This is neither a Conservative issue, nor is it a Liberal issue- simply stated, this is most certainly an AMERICAN issue!
You are either part of the solution or you are a part of the problem!
Democracy is not a spectator sport!
Lead, follow or get out of the way!
