From Prof. Jeffrey Breinholt:

[Students] should not assume their ideas have ever been considered by American counterterrorism officials, and . . . not be surprised when they find they are onto something unique and cutting-edge. After all, the Pentagon found that the expertise of one of the Doobie Brothers warranted awarding him a consulting contract . . . [And] Stephen Landman is a second year law student at the Catholic University of America . . . [his] research paper on bank liability for transferring money to terrorists . . . was so good that I encouraged him to let me publish it on the website of the International Assessment and Strategy Center.
