This book and the characters in it are merely fiction and not intended to be a representation of the truth. The towns and names of the suspected individuals and training camps were changed to protect the identity of those locations and individuals.
Being a father and a grandfather to a military age son and grandson I thought about how I would react or feel if I lost my son or grandson in a war like Iraq or Afghanistan. Not knowing for sure what that would feel like I can only imagine my extreme pain, anger and frustration. Just the thought of a loss like that is what inspired me to write this book. I know I would never be able to carry out my fantasy or desire to destroy the terrorist or their organizations if something like that happened to me but deep in my heart I would probably want to. Most of this book is about Doug hunting down and destroying the suspected Terrorist Organizations in America because he wanted revenge for the killing of his grandson.
I would never recommend or advocate this type of violence to anyone against the Muslim people or to any other group or organization in America. I would never say to someone that they should take the law into their own hands. The majority of the Muslim people in America are American Citizens that were born and raised here. They love America just as much as the Christians, Catholics, Buddhists, Jewish people and other religious people of America. It is my opinion that the majority of the Muslim people living in America are peaceful and loving people and do not align themselves with hatred like the extreme terrorist organizations. Like most races and religions, there are always a small number of extremists that cause the problems for the rest of their people.
The United States government has spent billions of tax payers’ dollars trying to keep America safe from terrorist attacks since September 11, 2001. Although there has been over eighty attacks on American Citizens since 2001 it is my opinion that the FBI, CIA, Homeland Security and other law enforcement agencies have done an excellent job of foiling the major terrorist plots against America before they happen. I commend them for doing an excellent job in keeping America safe. We should all pray that their diligent efforts will continue to succeed.
