Why We Fight (MOD) (BluRay Movie) [Blu-ray]

Is American foreign policy dominated by the idea of military supremacy? Has the military become too important in American life? Jarecki's shrewd and intelligent polemic would seem to give an affirmative answer to each of these questions.

WHY WE FIGHT is an unflinching look at the anatomy of American war-making. Granted unparalleled Pentagon access, the film launches a nonpartisan inquiry into the forces - political, economic, and ideological - that drive America to fight. Featuring John McCain, Gore Vidal, Richard Perle and others, WHY WE FIGHT explores a half-century of U.S. foreign policy from World War II to the Iraq War, revealing how political and corporate interests have become alarmingly entangled in the business of war.

Rarely before seen footage of deforestation and the illegal trade of endangered species exposes the vital connection between humans, animals, and our planet. By caring about our natural world, we begin a healing process that helps us all.
