Title: Embarassing
Product review: I'm as hawkish as the next guy. And I don't mind the conversational tone and profanities. What bothers me is the repeated errors in Hunt's book. For example, contrary to Hunt's assertion, the Patriot Act has nothing to do with holding Jose Padilla as an enemy combatant. Zip. Zero. Nada. (As Hunt might put it himself.) Just a little research, like actually reading the opinions in Padilla's case, would show that the U.S. government has not cited a single provision of the Patriot Act as justifying his detention. Instead, it is the President's war powers under Article II of the Constitution that are at issue. How can you call yourself a "terrorism expert" and get stuff like this wrong? It's embarrassing.
