He will be on BookTV (CSPAN2) Monday morning @ 6:45 a.m. I've watched him twice, very skeptical at first because he was an adviser to Petraeus and that usually means a political agenda. He doesn't politicize in the least, he's very clear and he covers Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan. No buzz words, just a very down to Earth description of what it is like to try to manage an insurgency and in a tone that is remarkably respectful of the population in question. Set your TIVO.
If you can't watch it that way, the segment will very likely be available for viewing next week on the BookTV website. He has a book out, The Accidental Guerilla, that I imagine is a great read, fwiw:
