Freedom Road Socialist Organization: Military Matters
"The Freedom Road Socialist Organization is pleased to introduce an irregular series of columns by Stan Goff on military affairs. This obviously has considerable importance for everyone trying to build opposition as the Bush administration's generic "war on terror" escalates into a planned invasion and occupation of Iraq. Stan's expertise is derived from over two decades in Special Forces in the US military, from Viet Nam to Haiti. He is the author of Hideous Dream, a penetrating first-hand account of the 1994 US intervention in Haiti which contains rich lessons about the operation of US imperialism, the culture of the armed forces, questions of military doctrine, and the resistance of the Haitian people."
