Letter to San Diego Union-Tribune (published):
President George Bush's slip of the tongue regarding "winning" the war on terror allowed a rare glimmer of truth to shine on the current administration's saber-rattling ways. The war on terror is analogous to the war on drugs: an endless campaign which accomplishes little except to line the pockets of the military-industrial complex.
The Department of Defense has usurped the State Department as the United States' primary foreign policy instrument. Does any Washington politician have the gumption to stand up to the Pentagon?
