When Enemy Combatant was first published in the United States in hardcover in 2006 it garnered sensational reviews, and its author was featured in the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, on National Public Radio, and on ABC News. A second generation British Muslim, Begg had been held by the U.S. military for more than three years before being released without charge in January of 2005. His memoir is the first published account by a Guantánamo detainee of life inside the infamous prison. Writing in the Washington Post Book World, Jane Mayer described Enemy Combatant as “fascinating . . . Begg provides some ideological counterweight to the one–sided spin coming from the U.S. government. He writes passionately and personally, stripping readers of the comforting lie that somehow the detainees aren’t really like us, with emotional attachments, intellectual interests and fully developed humanity.” Recommended by the Financial Times and Tikkun magazine and a ColorLines Editors’ Pick of Post–9/11 Books, Enemy Combatant is “a forcefully told, up-to-the-minute political story . . . necessary reading for people on all sides of the issue” (Publishers Weekly, starred review).

Part of the solution that was agreed to for air defense policies from the United States Navy was tactical air defense in the form of air combat fundamentals. Basic fighter maneuvers are a complex division that assembles numerous positional advantages. Aerodynamic flight operations take into consideration the geometry of pursuit and physics that manage a ratio between numerous areas that require specific energy calculations. The fundamentals of flight possibilities are proportionate to flight maneuvers. Basic aircraft assessments depend on a variety of attack positions that reveal numerous areas of internal national defense policies. If they are expected to be successful, aerodynamic energy and weight calculations depend on numerous considerations. Better angular positions also determine if effective measures can get a lock on the enemys defense. Opposition and requirements have to be determined if evasive estimates can be determined. All of these components usually determine numerous defensive positions of United States Naval pilots. Their maneuvers are carefully calculated and determine enemy attack positions that are offensive and successful at numerous radar locks. To be carefully positioned in range of the enemy requires power and evasive maneuvers. Angular positions relate to air-to-air weapon acquisitions and are carefully conducted to gain offensive positions. Once the determination is made that the enemy is impossible to track, pilots from the ceiling are called in to ambush the enemy and it is a tandem operation. Flushing him into a position that can be exploited by multiple other pilots is the objective of the United States military flight operations. Awareness of his acquisition strengths can reduce his tracking systems if proper weapons of mass destruction possibilities are to be considered. It is the intentions of the United States Navy to engage in numerous different angles that reveal a very complicated attack posture. To facilitate the escape of the enemy is also their area of expertise. Disengagement procedures do not occur until after the treaties have been established. The best tactical defense postures strategically position the United States Naval pilots. It is their duty to defend the air space and international waters of the United States. They are governed by the United Nations and their policies. They can assemble the best tactical defense postures in the world, and there usually is a multinational defense response when the intrusion alarm is sounded.

Terrorism, the Laws of War, and the Constitution examines three enemy combatant cases that represent the leading edge of U.S. efforts to devise legal rules, consistent with American constitutional principles, for waging the global war on terror. The distinguished contributors analyze the crucial questions these cases raise about the balance between national security and civil liberties in wartime and call for a reexamination of the complex connections between the Constitution and international law.

ENEMY COMBATANT is a hyper-charged misadventure driven by a young American's rage against his government. After stumbling on evidence of CIA secret prisons in Armenia and Georgia, Peter recruits an old friend to help free a dark-ops detainee -- an impossibly reckless prison-break mission, with no skills and no resources, no connection to the captured soldiers and no solid plan for getting home -- fueled by too much alcohol, a pressure-cooker marriage and the recent death of a parent. Set during the second Bush administration, ENEMY COMBATANT takes readers on a fantastical, adrenaline-packed journey from a smelter in Caucasia across the Turkish borderland to Homeland Security at JFK. Dark, comic and action-packed, ENEMY COMBATANT is the story of an aggrieved man acting out on the global stage, a raucous portrait of collateral damage from America's war on terror. "ENEMY COMBATANT covers a lot of territory, factually and metaphorically. It appropriates Americana, from road movies to virtual reality games, and provides -as the cliché goes -- 'a rollicking good time, ' while undercutting that notion entirely, as selfish, unaware, and dangerously self-serving. Sound like any country you've ever heard of? So, as I read it, this novel gathers its tropes and its metaphors as it speeds toward a kind of enlightenment for its two hazardously American male characters. It's obviously a cautionary tale and a cosmic warning. To make a bad pun: It's a take no prisoners book." - Ann Beattie, author of A Wonderful Stroke of Luck: A Novel "With his unsettling and completely original style, Winner brings together the buddy film, the war on terror and extravagant foreign settings in this novel that feels like a soon to be discovered blockbuster. Over and over, sentence by sentence we're caught off guard, leaving us in state of eerie suspense the whole book through." - Elizabeth McKenzie, author of The Portable Veblen: A Novel "David Winner's hypnotic page-turner, ENEMY COMBATANT, takes us back to the Bush era, during the Trump one. Winner's humor and agile imagination make the improbable story of two crazed Americans trying to rescue a prisoner from a CIA secret prison in Armenia both moving and believable." - Karl Geary, author of Montpelier Parade

Moazzam Begg is an ordinary man who has endured an extraordinary fate -- imprisoned for a crime he didn't commit and whose precise nature has never been determined. As far as the US government was concerned, it was enough to label him an 'enemy combatant'. Moazzam was arrested in Pakistan, where he was helping set up education programmes for children, in the panic-stricken months after the 9/11 attacks. He spent three years in prison, much of it in solitary confinement, and was subjected to over three hundred interrogations, death threats and torture, witnessing the killings of two detainees. He was released early in 2005 without explanation or apology. ENEMY COMBATANT is his riveting story. Not just an instant classic of incarceration literature, it reveals for the first time what it means to be an intelligent, engaged Muslim living in the West after 9/11, by someone who has recently emerged as an influential voice in the Muslim community, against both acts of terrorism and the demonising of Islam.

The Enemy Combatants Papers presents the five major enemy combatant cases of the post-9/11 era. Presented in narrative form, these original documents tell the story that clarifies the questions at the heart of the American detention of alleged combatants in the war on terror. These documents discuss the right to counsel, the right to a trial, the right for the accused to see the evidence against him, and the intersection between domestic and international law. The book highlights the tension between the needs of national security and the liberties allotted to alleged enemies of the state by highlighting the basic question of what the U.S. Constitution guarantees and to whom. In these documents, the reader can follow the evolving arguments about presidential powers in time of war, habeas corpus, the Geneva Conventions, balance of powers, and matters of detention and prisoner treatment. Complemented with a comprehensive timeline and appendices that include the relevant cases from the Civil War, World War II, and the Korean War and the premises for setting up military commissions and Combatant Status Review Tribunals, this book is meant for those who seek to understand the issues - legal, political, and military - that have dominated the search for balance between justice and security in the war on terror.

A man charged with the brutal act of terrorism... A lawyer sworn to defend him... A courtroom spinning wildly out of control... In the trial of the decade, attorney Tom Carpenter was just a spectator. Until, to his own astonishment, Tom finds himself thrust into a case primed to explode… The whole world thinks Tom’s new client is guilty of the worst act of terrorism since 9/11—except for one shadowy figure, who feeds Tom astounding inside information. But just as the trial is about to break wide open, Tom receives a chilling threat. Suddenly Tom cannot trust anyone, and his family must run for their lives. The only way to survive—and the only hope for justice—is for Tom to crack a terrifying conspiracy so vast and so powerful that anyone who believes it has already been marked to die….
