[Peace-discuss] The globalization of militarism

[Morton K. Brussel]

We've heard this before, but it bears repeating and emphasizing. And is it remarkable that this quotation and article comes from a professor at Drake University?

…It follows that under the kleptocratic influence of the powerful interests that are vested in the military-security-financial industries the US government has turned into an ominous global force of destabilization, obstruction, retrogression and authoritarianism.
