Why We Fight

If you haven't already seen the 2005 documentary, "Why We Fight", you must rent it now. It's an amazing documentary that pulls together a story of America that most Americans have no narrative for: why America is a militaristic country with a standing army, which even the first president warned would be a sign that empire was forming to overtake true democracy. It's scary, it'll have you in tears, and many viewers won't come back to the America they left when they started watching this film.
