"a conspiracy of silence at work in the Pentagon..." |
|
There's a conspiracy of silence at work in the Pentagon, an omerta-like code that promotes unity above strategy, duplication above decision, and conformity above economy. When you don't know where you are going, all roads will get you there--and this is the approach to what passes for strategy in the Pentagon.http://andrewsullivan.thedailybeast.com/2011/07/starving-the-defense-beast.html

if you have netflix, dig up an old hbo movie called "the pentagon wars" with kelsey grammer and (brain fart) the kid from "ferris buehler" . based on a true story about weapons development at the pentagon, and absolutely amazing. it is so much worse than you think, and that was a long time ago. the pentagon is completely out of control. used to make a button with a picture of the pentagon and the wording "starve this beast". never sold too well. people didn't recognize the pentagon.
