The American Way of War: Guided Missiles, Misguided Men, and a Republic in Peril
Eugene Jarecki | 2010 | ISBN: 1416544569 | English | 324 pages | ePUB | 2 MB
In the sobering aftermath of America's invasion of Iraq, Eugene Jarecki, the creator of the award-winning documentary Why We Fight, launches a penetrating and revelatory inquiry into how forces within the American political, economic, and military systems have come to undermine the carefully crafted structure of our republic — upsetting its balance of powers, vastly strengthening the hand of the president in taking the nation to war, and imperiling the workings of American cracy. This is a story not of simple corruption but of the unexpected origins of a more subtle and, in many ways, more worrisome disfiguring of our political system and society.
While in no way absolving George W. Bush and his inner circle of their accountability for misguiding the country into a disastrous war — in fact, Jarecki sheds new light on the deepest underpinnings of how and why they did so — he reveals that the forty-third president's predisposition toward war and Congress's acquiescence to his wishes must be understood as part of a longer story. This corrupting of our system was predicted by some of America's leading military and political minds.
In his now legendary 1961 farewell address, President Dwight D. Eisenhower warned of "the disastrous rise of misplaced power" that could result from the increasing influence of what he called the "military industrial complex." Nearly two centuries earlier, another general turned president, George Washington, had warned that "overgrown military establishments" were antithetical to republican liberties. Today, with an exploding defense budget, millions of Americans employed in the defense sector, and more than eight hundred U.S. military bases in 130 countries, the worst fears of Washington and Eisenhower have come to pass.
