The United States Is Currently Engaged In A Military Effort That Has Been Characterized As The “long War.
” The Long War Has Been Described By More As An Epic Struggle Against Adversaries Bent On Forming A Unifie Islamic World To Supplant Western Dominance, While Others Describe It More Narrowiy As One Extension Of The War On Terror.
But While Policymakers, Military Lwqders, And Scholars Have Offered Numerous Definitions Of The Long War, No Consensus Has Been Reached About This Term Or Its Implciations For The United States.
To Understand The Impacts That This Long War Will Have On The U.
s.
Army And On U.
s.
Firces In Commander-in-chief, It Is Necessary To Understand Greater degree Precisely What The Long War Is Anx How It Might Release Over The Coming Years.
