Why We Fight

Great example of explaining the meaning behind Dwight Eisenhower's farewell address. Beware the Military, Industrial, Congressional, Complex!

If you have questions on the complexity of war...It is beyond right and wrong, politictics of the day or popular opinion. Watch this documentary and make your own decision, after all it is our belife in the principles of OUR constitution( READ IT, KNOW IT, LOVE IT, LIVE IT!!!!!!) that make us FREE! USA!!!!!LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT!!!

What sets this aside, and possibly above, many other Iraq Docs is that it's as complete a lead-up to what's going on, especially regarding the manipulative machinations in Washington. There's also some clips from Frank Capra's immortal short films of the 40's. I was especially concerned when Rumsfeld said, with total conviction, that he knew there were WMDs in Iraq. The liars in Washington are exposed, and Eisenhower comes off as somewhat of a prophet. This film is definitely worth considering.

A dash of the Michael Moore style of documentary, but much more factual and accurate in historical basis for the thesis: Sometimes America fights because the Industrial Military Complex has more power than elected leaders. Great interviews with McCain back before his quest for the Presidency led him off the real Straight Talk Express. Try to ignore a couple of the more slanted interviews... Gore Vidal is full of it! Otherwise, much food for thought that needs to be considered.

I bought this movie on advice from a dear friend. Aside from the content itself (intriguing and somewhat bothersome from a moral point of view) the DVD came in 'mint' condition and arrived prior to its expected delivery date. I would definitely purchase DVD's from this seller again.
