The Art of Victory


One of the most viewed quotes on Twitter in January after America killed Maj. Gen. Qassem Soleimani of Iran who led Iranian covert operations and intelligence and was one of the country’s most senior leaders. His murder brought Washington and Tehran closer to a war before the global emergency of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Only fools fight foolish wars when they ignore the wisdom of the wise.
- from one of my completed new books, "The Art of Victory" inspired by Sun Tzu's  classic "The Art of War".
