Another in same vein: Joseph Gerson, Empire & the Bomb (2007). Very good. Jim Ranney

*From:*gha-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:gha-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] *On Behalf Of *Martin, Glen T*Noam Homsky is a very respectable Academic person, who has innovated much in linguistic thought. However I warn again against turning this book against the Pentagon only. You can include it, but what about other places that prepare war strategies, sometimes they are defence strategies and sometimes they are attack strategies.. The Pentagon is not the only one in the world. what about dictatorships - combattant dictatorships!! all kind of dictatorships... every country has a military center in which such strategies are planned. I am not a fan of any country in particular, I think that every country has its socio-economic problems, and probably makes many mistakes in many fields, the U.S. Britain, France, Russia, and my country included. But to have a whole chapter only based on Pentagon "evils" - that is a total mistake in my opinion. If we are a brotherhood for*

Dear friends in GHA. For those who are informed about the global reach and designs of the superpower, the single mention of the Pentagon is very appropriate. One cannot pursue, study, or establish peace if one is not clear about the facts. And the fact is that the single greatest destroyer of peace in the world today is the U.S. and the Pentagon. This is the view of all the best scholars who are not propaganda stooges for the empire. I highly recommend all of the following documented and informed studies if we are to get clear about why the Pentagon should be mentioned in any informed peace document:

Noam Chomsky, /Hegemony or Survival: America's Quest for Global Dominance./

F. William Engdahl, /Full Spectrum Dominance: Totalitarian Democracy in the New World Order./

Pepe Escobar, /Globalistan: How the Globalized World is Dissolving into Liquid War./

Greg Grandin, /Empire's Workshop: Latin American, the United States, and the Rise of the New Imperialism./

//Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri, /Empire./

//Michael Parenti, /The Face of Imperialism./

James Petras and Henry Veltmeyer, /Empire with Imperialism: The Globalizing Dynamics of Neo-liberal Capitalism./

//John Perkins, /The Secret History of the American Empire./

Nick Turse, /The Changing Face of Empire: Special Ops, Drones, Spies, Proxy Fighters, Secret Bases, and Cyberwarfare./

//

IF anyone finishes these books and still thinks that the U.S. drive to global empire is not the central problem that must be mentioned in all discussions about the way to peace, there are many more such books, by top scholars, that I can also recommend.

In peace and hope,

Glen Martin

-------- Original Message --------*I agree to the contents of this work except one thing that I would suggest to alter. The Pentagon is not the only place in which a lot of money and thought are invested to the developing of war theories and sophisticated arsenals. There are a lot of places like this in other countries, the only difference is that the Pentagon is more open to public knowledge and sometimes even free press pressures that influence it. To mention only the American Pentagon would be prejudiced and form a kind of anti American propaganda. I would suggest the title - major institutes etc.. and to look at other places too. The mentioning only of the Pentagon is wrong in my opinion. If you continue like this it would seem as an anti American book. *

*2, I hope that in the chapters on social economic problems, you really get into the obstacles to peace and also thoughts ho*w *to deal with them, or the major* *ideas how to approach such problems. Without paying attention to such obstacles, and to the augmenting terror of poor countries around the world - which I think you do mention- it would be difficult to propagate ideas of peace. If those two will be thought about I'm completely **for this book*, *and its a joy such a work would be published and distributed
