Finishing this book in our current political climate is an exercise in wondering if Frank could see the future like Paul Muad‘dib. Paul is groomed to be a best of all worlds leader, except all he can see is war. Many of our leaders think they can see a similar future, that war is the only future, and some are all too eager to lead straight into it for personal glory. Too few of our leaders are willing to fall on their swords to avoid war.
