Lone Survivor....it will give you some good FACTS and REASONS to think on....it all has to do with Iraq and Afghanistan....2 men, bin laden and hussein and 1 evil religion...ISLAM , that they hide behind and declare their HATE for all who do not worship their god....satan's ultimate ally.....

This will be more of a directory than a recommendation, but hopefully, you'll find some useful information: 1) Under the main wikipedia article "Think Tanks", see the "Government" category. (about halfway down the page) The first of the three paragraphs reads: "Government think tanks are also important in the United States, particularly in the security and defense field. These include the Institute for National Strategic Studies, Institute for Homeland Security Studies, and the Center for Technology and National Security Policy, at the National Defense University; the Center for Naval Warfare Studies at the Naval War College and the Strategic Studies Institute at the U.S. Army War College." Additional info/notes/links follows the main article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Think_tank#Types_of_think_tanks 2) SourceWatch has a good article on think tanks, followed by a long list of US think tanks http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Think_tank 3) The Harvard Kennedy School of Government's Think Tanks Directory, which comes with a Google Custom search engine. http://www.hks.harvard.edu/library/research/guides/think-tanks-directory.htm a) "Iraq" search results http://tinyurl.com/n63atq b) "Afghanistan" search results http://tinyurl.com/naarm5 3) "Incomplete list of significant think tanks that have experts and analysts who might be useful sources for journalists covering the military." http://www.militaryreporters.org/thinktank.html (most are conservative) 4) Not sure about the following 2003 essay, but it looks interesting. "The Military-Industrial-Think Tank Complex - Corporate Think Tanks and the Doctrine of Aggressive Militarism" http://multinationalmonitor.org/mm2003/03jan-feb/jan-feb03corp2.html Good luck with your research.
