Why The U.S. Can’t Kick Militarism
an illustrated expose by Joel Andreas, May 2004
“Addicted to War is a witty and devastating portrait of U.S. military policy, a fine example of art serving society.”
Howard Zinn*, Author of A People’s History of the United States
…..
“Addicted to War should be assigned reading in American schools because it tells the true history of this nation’s culture of war. Because of this book, many young students will think twice before considering enlistment in the military. How different things might have been had my son had a chance to read it. However, it is not too late for many thousands of young Americans.”
Fernando Suarez del Solar, whose son, Jesus, died fighting in Iraq, March 2003
…..
“Addicted to War is an extraordinarily important and powerful little book. Every American should read it.”
Ron Kovic*, Vietnam veteran, author of Born on the Fourth of July
…..
“Addicted to War is not only a witty and entertaining portrait of our war-dependent economy, but a truly relevant insight not available in the mainstream media, something our children should know before they must make their choice whether or not to become fodder for the military machine.”
Susan Sarandon, Actor
…..
As a veteran of three wars, World War ll through Vietnam, with 33 years of Army service, I find this book to be the most truthful recitation of our government’s policies available anywhere.”
Col. James Burkholder*, U.S. Army, retired
