Dave Blair with “The Three Streams of Leadership”

“The key is whether we love our troops enough to face a scary world outside of ourselves, where we must cover down on our weaknesses through admitting them in the company of comrades, in order to provide all the necessary flavors of leadership to our troops. If we do not, we stand at risk of reducing our units to a cult of personality built around our own strengths, and we then write stories to justify how our personal strengths are uniquely right and good.”

And Collin Hunt’s “The Myth of the Returned Foreign Fighter”

“Foreign fighters present little direct threat to their homelands despite disastrous efforts to combat them, but that doesn’t mean counter-radicalization programs are without value.”
