it makes me want to read the book!

I agreed with much of what was said in the review-- I think we have entangled ourselves in many places where we do not belong. I also think we topple countries that we claim to be saving. Many countries that have had american intervention find themselves worse off than if we had just stayed out in the first place.

We send our sons to die in far off places that do not want us there, all in the name of liberty, when really all that is served is some hidden interest of our own government. It's disgusting.

Hey, I learned a new word: hegemony. domination, control, supremacy. A sad word. I had to look it up to find out what it meant, so at least I know more than I did when I got up today! :o)
