Praise for Why We Fight"In this short but extremely valuable book, the distinguished former Secretary of Education . . . brings his customary lucidity and polemical firepower." --Commentary"Provocative . . . Bennett expresses a justified skepticism about claims that political violence is alien to the spirit of Islam and draws attention to the vicious anti-Americanism and anti-Semitism disseminated by the state-sanctioned media in many 'moderate' Arab countries."--New York Times"An excellent defense of patriotism . . . Read it. Why We Fight is. . . dynamic, knowledgeable and charismatic. . . . [Bennett] is eloquent and persuasive." --Houston Chronicle"Mr. Bennett dissects with precision what the novelist Cheryl Benard has called 'academic masochism in America' . . . [and] is able to show how the professors and journalists who uttered [anti-American comments] could arrive at such judgments." --Wall Street Journal
