US War Culture and the Destiny of the Empire

Abstract

ABSTRACT In an important sense, the history of the United States is a bloody record of war. Founded less than two and a half centuries ago, the US has fought more than two hundred wars. War has brought the US enormous political, economic, territorial and ideological benefits, which is the reason why the country has waged wars so frequently. Today the US, at the center of a new type of empire of financial colonialism, continues to ignite wars in many parts of the world in order to maintain the dividends from its hegemony. It has thus come to pose a danger to the world. The interest group that lies behind these wars has become the world’s largest and most evil terrorist organization. Killing in the name of liberty is the consistent, criminal logic of the US, which commits frequent outrages against humanity and human rights. The rivalry between the US and other countries and peoples has never been a clash of civilizations, but instead, a battle between barbarism and civilization. When we confront the United States, that has devoted itself to building a system of Prompt Global Strike (PGS), we must, as Mao once said, cast away illusions and prepare for struggle.
