The Unauthorized World Situation Report

A Second Look at the Twentieth Century And Its Aftermath

Omschrijving

The central thesis of Situation Report is that America's current difficulties in foreign affairs are not solely the product of mistakes from the recent past and from Washington's lockstepped Republican, 'neoconservative" leadership under George W. Bush. That is a charade, a sideshow. Rather, America's predicament is the logical culmination of an egocentric outlook and a presumptuous attitude which came to the forefront in 1898, the year of the Spanish-American War. It is this unnecessary war and America's subsequent collaboration with England, resulting in two world wars, which are the foundations of the Twenty-First Century and which were the cause of so much hardship, death and destruction in the century just passed. In particular, the American train wreck in the Middle East and the atrocity of 9/11 itself can be traced to Washington's ill-advised and inglorious foreign policy track record spanning decades. The Unauthorized World Situation Report does not offer solutions, but it does provide insight and perspective. Rien n'arrive par hasard.
