Why We Fight

Wow! I just watched a great movie titled "Why We Fight" directed by Eugene Jarecki. It is about the industrial-military complex and the need for an informed public. It starts with President Dwight Eisenhower's fare well speach in which he warned Americans about the dangers to our way of life from the industrial-military complex. The danger is from forces in our society which are moving us from a republic to an empire. After all the reason I am writing this blog from Kuwait is due to the global war on terrorism which brought so many of us to Iraq. We were lied to by our president when he used the invasion of Iraq as way to keep us safe from terrorism and in the end we now know that Iraq had nothing to due with the attacks on America of 9/11. You must go see the movie or get the DVD. Go to http://www.sonyclassics.com/whywefight/ to see a clip of the movie.
