For twenty-Four years, I served in the shadows — in places the headlines never tell you about, on missions that never officially happened. I believed in the flag, in the mission, in the idea that sacrifice meant something.
I was wrong.
This is not a story of heroes.
It’s a confession, a warning, and a record of what really happens when you serve a system that will use you, discard you, and deny you ever existed.
I’ve observed and seen betrayal in every form — from the deserts of Iraq to the streets of Afghanistan, from covert games in Ukraine and Kashmir to the rubble of Gaza to the chaos and mayhem Killings in Mexico, Central America and South America. I’ve watched leaders justify atrocities as strategy, watched allies turn into enemies, and seen good men left to rot when they were no longer useful.
This life cost me my marriage, my family, my friends, my peace. And for what? For politicians to shake hands while people bled in the dirt.
If you think this work is glamorous, walk away now. If you think it’s noble, read on — and find out what it really takes, what it really costs, and why, when it’s over, the only thing you’ll have left are ghosts.

Ashes of Middle East: How Empires and Oil Consumed a Civilization from Afghanistan to the Maghreb By Hardev Panesar
They came for oil and left behind ghosts.
From the deserts of Arabia to the ruins of Gaza, from the mountains of Afghanistan to the banks of the Nile, this is the untold chronicle of how power, greed, and silence conspired to set a region on fire.
In Ashes of the Middle East, Hardev Panesar traces a century of betrayal — colonial borders drawn in ink and blood, dictators rising and falling under foreign hands, and empires old and new feeding on the world’s most contested resource: oil, the “liquid gold.”
Blending history, reportage, and moral witness, Panesar takes readers through the wreckage of Palestine, Iraq, Syria, Libya, Yemen, and beyond. He reveals how Western intervention and regional ambition reduced nations to rubble and turned millions into refugees. Yet amid the ruins, he finds what no bomb can kill — the courage of ordinary men and women who continue to rebuild and remember.
At once indictment and elegy, Ashes of the Middle East ends with a call that history can no longer ignore: those who profited from destruction must pay the price of restoration. It is both a requiem for the dead and a manifesto for the living.
“The Middle East may lie in ashes, but its people still breathe truth — and truth, once spoken, is the one fire no tyrant can extinguish.”
The Theft of a Continent: Africa: The Blood in the Soil By Hardev Panesar
They came for the land with guns.
They came for the people with chains.
Now they come in suits—with loans, contracts, and smiles.
But the theft has never stopped.
Africa was never poor — it was made poor.
For centuries, empires, corporations, and dictators conspired to strip the continent bare — of its land, its minerals, and its people’s dignity.
From the forests of Kenya and the deserts of Algeria, to the mines of Congo and the oil fields of Nigeria, Africans fought with courage and sacrifice to break the chains of colonial rule. Yet even as flags were raised and anthems sung, another form of bondage took hold: debt, corruption, and foreign domination wearing the mask of freedom.
The Theft of a Continent – AFRICA is the story of both triumph and betrayal. It recounts the liberation struggles — the martyrs, the revolutionaries, the coups, and the Cold War intrigues. It also exposes the neocolonial theft that continues today, where contracts replace cannons and boardrooms replace battlefields.
This is not just history. It is a call to Africa’s youth — to finish the work begun by Nkrumah, Kenyatta, Cabral, Lumumba, Sankara, Mandela, and countless others.
Because until Africa controls its land, its resources, and its destiny, the theft is not over.
Written with rage, pride, and a deep love for the continent, The Theft of a Continent is a call to the new African generation: rise, reclaim, and refuse to be bought. Africa is not for sale. And the world will hear her voice.
The Republic is not a Security Experiment: A Doctrine of National Security for Kenya and the African Century By Hardev
Kingdom of Ash: The Cartel Republic – Empire of Blood by Hardev Panesar
Cartels don’t just move product anymore—they move permission.
A private switch welded to a city console. A drone that can turn a crowd into a warning. A shell bank that launders murder as “security.”
When a desert handoff goes sideways, ex-operative Dante Moretti and a relentless lens woman, Isabella Cruz, stumble into the Ceniza Root—a hidden registry of shutters, kill demos, and ports bought like lungs. The men who rent our oxygen will do anything to keep that map in the dark.
From midnight auctions in Guadalajara to the high ring of Sarit Centre and the roses at Westgate; from Mombasa’s Kipevu cranes under a storm to glass rooms on the Potomac, the chase rips through boardrooms, catwalks, and hearing halls while mercenaries, sicarias, and “handlers” with immaculate budgets script the world’s next empire.
Dante wants the switch back on the wall where everyone can see it. Isabella wants the truth in a light too bright to be rented. Between them and daylight: kill teams on payroll, corrupt officials smiling for cameras, and a new world order built on logistics and fear.
This isn’t a war for a throne.
It’s a fight over who gets to turn the lights on.
Kingdom of Ash — The Cartel Republic is a high-velocity thriller about power, ports, and the quiet machinery that decides who breathes. When the smoke clears, ash is all that’s left—unless someone makes the world boring on purpose again.

Hot Flat and Crowded by Thomas Friedman
Brief Summary
Hot, Flat, and Crowded: Why We Need a Green Revolution – and How It Can Renew America
In this brilliant, essential book, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Thomas L. Friedman speaks to America's urgent need for national renewal and explains how a green revolution can bring about both a sustainable environment and a sustainable America.
Friedman explains how global warming, rapidly growing populations, and the expansion of the world’s middle class through globalization have produced a dangerously unstable planet--one that is "hot, flat, and crowded." In this Release 2.0 edition, he also shows how the very habits that led us to ravage the natural world led to the meltdown of the financial markets and the Great Recession.
The challenge of a sustainable way of life presents the United States with an opportunity not only to rebuild its economy, but to lead the world in radically innovating toward cleaner energy. And it could inspire Americans to something we haven't seen in a long time--nation-building in America--by summoning the intelligence, creativity, and concern for the common good that are our greatest national resources.
Hot, Flat, and Crowded is classic Thomas L. Friedman: fearless, incisive, forward-looking, and rich in surprising common sense about the challenge--and the promise--of the future.

Through My African Eyes by Jeff Koinange
"Through My African Eyes!” is a concise narrative covering some of the major players in 20th century African politics. The book is rich with insights into the personal and intellectual underpinnings of many historical events in Africa. Chronicles of some pretty interesting Africans from warlords, soldiers, victims and politicians lend insight into Jeff’s celebrated journalistic style. Through his eyes we are made to understand the role of journalist’s as binders of our social fabric.
"Through My African Eyes” is very informative and quite humorous, utilizing a modern quick precise narrative style. He is able to describe complex global geopolitical issues with incisive analysis. The book surf’s one through the experience with speed and historical accuracy. We see the visual the words impart, rather than being stuck in prose. The best part is being able to walk the journey informed by a largely Kenyan perspective. Jeff outlines clearly how biased reportage can splinter any society and promote its disintegration by pandering to people’s lowest instincts.
The narrative draws out lesser-known aspects of his life. Jeff’s unblinking examination of his grandfather’s life is historically illuminating and serves as a symbolic bridge between the beginning and the end of colonialism. Jeff is the first African ever to win a Television Emmy and a George Foster Peabody. He merited the Vernon Jarrett Award as well as the prestigious! ‘Prix Bayeux’ for reportage that arrested global crises."
