Speaker Topic: The Utility of Force
Until 1989 there was a general agreement on the nature of the threat and the West's response. Today the threat is ill defined and poorly understood. Wars of choice have been politically disaterous. Armed forces are very expensive. Does the use of forces bring us security any more?
Speaker Bio:General Sir Jack Deverell left the Army in March 2004. An Infantryman, he has spent much of his career involved in operations and training. In his final appointment (Commander in Chief Allied Forces North) he was responsible for the accession and integration of new NATO nations and the operational direction of the NATO I SAF in Afghanistan. He is Chairman, typist and teaboy of JFD Solutions Ltd.
