thirty six years that we've actually been around as a country you're talking about you know a war on average once every year and three months serving americans are on permanent standby to deploy to carry out warfare on command as the u.s. has a bone to pick one enemy after the other from the soviet union and the choppiness threat the most useful enemy where we are legitimate and we are completely fantastical it was always available as a global conspiracy against which to justify any smaller untag it is after the cold war the list keeps expanding allied air forces began an attack on military targets in iraq in kuwait airstrikes against syrian forces are more on target. begins striking selected targets on military importance undermine saddam hussein's ability
8:22 pm
to wage war we should get out these air defenses with a defense budget that surpasses the military expenditure of all other countries combined. no other nation drums up war as consistently as america and while people are still responding and recovering from the violence that's going. in one place or even in the same place we're launching new operations and more atrocities in different parts of the world the military industrial complex worth billions of dollars is largely america's driving force. deeply rooted in the system it would serve no purpose if there was no one to fight if there were no more enemies left there would be a rush of a sense of mission a frightening thought to many as this would reveal the economic social and cultural emptiness at home here it was a country when there are no enemies who try to put together the evil empire again do in a syria what we're doing now in libya we've got to overthrow this guy the threat that iran poses us here in and year out americans are convinced that the u.s.
