Andrew Bacevich and The Washington Rules

Andrew has an opinion (or two) on our perpetual war machine.  He was part of it.  He lost his son to it.

Listen to his presentation on The Washington Rules via [mp3] of the show. (My apologies to David Barsamian)

It’s a striking, honest assessment of the attitude portrayed throughout US Government about military strength, with equal fervor by both of the major parties.  The same attitude gets played in the news, time and time again, no wonder our kids think endless war is normal.

Never mind my rants on how the entire world pays for this machine through continuous inflation.  This is the other side of the coin.
