Robert Young Pelton’s book “Licensed to Kill” chronicled his time with a team of government-hired guns in the war on terror in 2003. Since then, he’s found himself at the heart of numerous major news events — from U.S. soldier Bowe Bergdahl’s walking away from his unit into captivity by the Taliban, to the migrant crisis, the IS group’s “caliphate” and notorious terrorist Joseph Kony of the Lord’s Resistance Army. Pelton is a smart, well-connected individual who knows how to navigate the shadowy world of terrorism and is able to make sense of disparate details that even the authorities who should know, don’t. He talks to Target USA about IS group’s new “expansion” model.
