Frederick Kagan spoke at the Princeton Club, New York City, Tuesday evening, April 9, 2002.
http://www.princetonclub.com American Heritage Lecture Series -- Special Guest Frederick W. Kagan After September 11: Terrorism and the Enduring Bases of American Defense Strategy Details: Join us for a stimulating and provocative discussion as Frederick W. Kagan, Associate Professor of military history at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, and author of While America Sleeps: Self-Delusion, Military Weakness, and the Threat to Peace Today, examines our countrys military and defense strategies and how they contributed to the devastations of September 11. According to Professor Kagan, United States military and defense strategies of the 1990s were always wrong and must be fundamentally reoriented, not only to protect us from the obvious danger of terrorism but to strengthen our ability to respond to other, perhaps even graver, threats to our national security. (Professor Kagans talk will present his own personal views and not those of the United States military or West Point). This event is co-sponsored with the Association for the American Founding and its Legacy, an organization of CUNY faculty members created to encourage study and appreciation of the unique cultural and intellectual heritage of the United States. -----
