Description
We had a really great conversation with Andrew Bacevich, one of the most astute, if not the preeminent, critics of American foreign policy today. We talked about the ongoing bloodshed in Ukraine, the need to find a way out, the current U.S. saber-rattling toward China, the 20th anniversary of the Iraq War, and some history of the Cold War, including NSC-68.
As always we discussed the U.S. priorities in spending billions abroad and on the military budget while problems at home mount.
Talking with Andy Bacevich is always a great education and essential viewing/listening.
