A documentary that examines America's policies regarding making war, most recently the Iraq war and what is termed “the Bush doctrine”, which includes pre-emptive strikes. The author suggests that this policy has been in the works for many years, reviewing past wars in the 20th century. A variety of individuals are asked “Why de we fight?” and, predictably, come up with a variety of answers. This is followed by a look at today's U.S. military/industrial complex via interviews with individuals involved in it.
