Summary: The unravelling of Empires through the ages is seldom studied by politicians and administrators. There are powerful lessons to be learned from the slow erosion of great powers through history, and from the patterns of relentlessness and ruthlessness that have allowed decidedly smaller forces to prevail over dominant but progressively enervated nations. An inability to comprehend and accommodate these realities underlies much of the failure of current counter-terrorism practices.
