"Homeland Siege" provides current enemy intelligence as its lead-in to advanced tactical technique for U.S. troops and policemen. But this intelligence doesn't come from some foreign shore; it comes from the borders, highways, and cities of America with the enemy being international organized crime. The book first looks into which Hispanic and Asian elements are now controlling the wholesale distribution of drugs inside America. Then, it provides chapters on drug route mapping, hostage rescue, and collateral-damage-free defense. All three topics should be of great interest to police and military alike. The lessons of "Homeland Siege" should make U.S. streets safer to walk and Afghan villages easier to pacify. Part One discusses the possibility of foreign power's indirect assault on the American homeland. The most flagrant evidence of such an assault has been cyber, but it may well entail a massive crime wave. Such things are always possible in 4th-Generation Warfare (4GW)--that which is fought in the political, economic, psychological, and martial arenas simultaneously. If such an attack were in progress, U.S. leaders would be hesitant to commit enough of their Armed Forces to meet what appeared to be a law enforcement challenge. Part Two discusses the extent to which U.S. military and police missions have merged over the years. Then, Part Three offers extensively researched chapters on smuggling-route identification, civilian-saving building assault, and indigenous-neighbor-saving outpost defense. Those chapters will help U.S. police to handle the next kidnapping and U.S. military personnel to defeat the drug-funded Taliban. .

Part I. The most serious threat to America. Far too much foreign activity on U.S. soil -- More than just a crime wave -- Too much for U.S. police to handle? -- Border Crisis too big for government agencies / Part II. As military and police missions merge. The 4GW policing requirement -- Law enforcement not military's job in past -- Modern infantry men need police training / Part III. Shared experience in tactics. Foiling foe's resupply and reinforcement -- Civilian-saving attach on a building -- Collateral-damage-free defense -- Using basic-service volunteers / Appendix: China's takeover of Nepal.
