Title: Waging the same old barbarism
Product review: Waging Modern War is instructive in only one regard. It affords us direct insight into the Dr. Strangelove world of ego tripping generals with Ozymandias type titles like Supreme Commander. It serves up Orwellian excuses for imperial intervention and the systematic bombing of civilian targets under the guise of humanitarian intervention. Waging Modern War is ultimately only an updated version of the same old doctrines of military callousness and the dehumanizing language which refers to slain civilians as "collateral damage."Tacitus would have had the perfect rejoinder to this exercise in military egomania: "They make a desert and call it peace."
