"The Seduction of War" L.A.Times book festival. DO NOT MISS RERUN.
Edited on Sun Apr-25-04 02:49 AM by LittleApple81
I watched it on repeat around 1 a.m. this morning on C-Span 2:

Panel: The Seduction of War

Anthony Swofford, "Jarhead: A Marine's Chronicle of the Gulf War and Other Battles"
Chris Hedges, "War is a Force That Gives Us Meaning"
James Hillman, "A Terrible Love of War"
Leo Braudy, "From Chivalry to Terrorism: War and the Changing Nature of Masculinity"
Samantha Power, "'A Problem from Hell': America and the Age of Genocide"—Moderato

IT WAS ABSOLUTELY GREAT.
Then they had Chalmers who wrote "The Sorrows of Empire" on the phone-in section of the program.
PLEASE DO NOT MISS IT IF THEY REPEAT THIS.

1. The 6:00 segment
Had the author of a book that I think was titled "the Lesser of Two Evils-Democracy in the Age of Terror" (I could be wrong about the title.) Responded to a question by saying that he believed OBL was for Bush. He had been talking about terrorists trying to influence the 2004 election.
