'''Robert A. Pape''' is Professor of Political Science at the University of Chicago specializing in international security affairs. Pape has studied and written about the fallacy of what he calls "bombing to win". His contention is that all of [[America]]'s many [[war]]s follow fairly predictable progressions through "stages." He has been a [[NatSec]] adviser to most past administrations, including [[Trump 1.0]], but not [[Trump 2.0]].
