The War of Ideas

Today, just as in the Cold War, the United States finds itself at war with a political ideology bent on the destruction of freedom in this country and around the globe. Its explicit agenda is to compel Muslims and non-Muslims the world over to submit to an international theocracy under a repressive Taliban-style religious code known as Shari’a.

Ronald Reagan understood that totalitarian ideological movements have to be fought and defeated on many fronts including the strategic, military and economic ones. Perhaps his most important insight, however, was the necessity of waging and winning a war of ideas.

Today’s enemies compel us to wage such an ideological struggle with at least as much skill, discipline and tenacity as President Reagan employed to prevail in the Cold War. The job of the Center for Security Policy is to help our government, countrymen and other freedom-loving nations conceptualize, conduct and succeed on this front.

The Center remains one of the only organizations in the country dedicated ensuring that U.S. leaders have the tools they need to fight and win the War of Ideas. The Center’s staff, associates and advisors constitute the Special Forces in the War of Ideas equipped with the experience, imagination, expertise, agility and drive not just to advance strategies for victory, but to get them adopted and implemented.
