Men Who Stare At Goats

This story is about what happened when a small group of men – highly placed within the United States military, the government, and the intelligence services – began believing in very strange things. In 1979 a secret unit was established by the most gifted minds within the US army. Defying all known accepted military practice – and, indeed, the laws of physics – they believed that a soldier could adopt the cloak of insvisibilty, pass cleanly through walls and perhaps most chillingly, kill goats just by staring at them. Entrusted with defending America from all known adversaries, they were the First Earth Battalion. And they really weren’t joking. What’s more, they are back and fighting the War on Terror. Ronson’s highly acclaimed bestseller, Them: Adventures With Extremists, examined the paranoia at the fringes of Clinton’s America. The Men Who Stare At Goats reveals extraordinary – and very nutty – national secrets at the core of George W Bush’s War on Terror. If you enjoyed Nine11 the movie, have a sense of humour and are interested in global strategies of the most powerful nation, then this one is for you!
