@cspanofficial: C-SPAN's "America's Book Club" — James Stavridis, retired U.S. Navy admiral and former Supreme Allied Commander, says he cannot predict the outcome of the combat in the Middle East. "In terms of predicting it, I can answer that in three words: I don't know, nobody does," he said. "If anything, the last 20 years should have taught us to be more humble in our assessment of our predictive facilities." Mr. Stavridis also added that modern warfare is changing and "we ought to be very cognizant of that, tactically, operationally and strategically." Watch the full interview, filmed @libraryofcongress, SUNDAY at 6pm and 9pm ET/PT on C-SPAN. #cspan #cspanabc #stavridis #middleeast #war #books
