Not McCoy, Carl, but you here.

McCoy is unfairly provocative? Perhaps. K. Aram suggests that his article have a trigger-warning, viz., "Spoiler alert: we lose.”

The ‘call to action’ is to consider McCoy’s argument - is it right? - and think about how we can communicate it to the yet unknowing world.

Obama-Clinton’s war provocations of China continue in the current administration.

Pettifogging censorship at AWARE is not much of an issue.

I’ve been thrown out of better bars than this one...

In my mind this is unfairly provocative. Stuart has been doing a conscientious and good job monitoring the Peace list, and explaining his criteria.

Alfred McCoy, professor of history at the University of Wisconsin-Madison is author of the forthcoming "In the Shadows of the American Century: The Rise and Decline of U.S. Global Power” (Dispatch Books, September). His previous books include: "Torture and Impunity: The U.S. Doctrine of Coercive Interrogation" (University of Wisconsin, 2012), "A Question of Torture: CIA Interrogation, from the Cold War to the War on Terror" (American Empire Project); "Policing America’s Empire: The United States, the Philippines, and the Rise of the Surveillance State," and "The Politics of Heroin: CIA Complicity in the Global Drug Trade." He has also convened the 'Empires in Transition/ project, a global working group of 140 historians from universities on four continents. The results of their first meetings were published as "Colonial Crucible: Empire in the Making of the Modern American State.”

His recent article "World War III With China: How It Might Actually Be Fought” envisions the outcome of the US war provocations against China undertaken in the Bush-Obama-Clinton (as Secretary of State) administrations, and continued in the Trump administration.

To avoid cross posting, I’ve sent the article to the <peace at anti-war.net<mailto:peace at anti-war.net>> list, as a call to action.

AWARE and the anti-war movement in general should work strenuously against the outcome McCoy envisages, by informing the generally anti-war US public of where our government’s policy is leading. —CGE
