In the course of reviewing the conflicts of the 20th century and today, he argues that to end, or at least minimize, the cycle of 21st century violence humanity is inflicting on itself, America must lead the peaceful charge for change. To do so Americans need to learn and understand the reasons for war and how future wars can be stopped. War is no the answer to hunger, oil, territorial expansion, ethnic cleansing or the survival of America. On the contrary it is its escalating destructive downfall.
He points to Chinas re-emergence as a global power as Americas greatest challenge - and one that must be resolved peacefully. America must keep in mind the warning by the Greek historian Thucydides, more than 2,000 years ago, that belief in the inevitability of conflict can become one of its main causes. In other words, America cannot afford to become a victim of its own political spin
Peter de Krassels treatment on war reads like a journalistic account of Heart of Darkness. We are like Marlow, journeying down a political river, with each chapter forcing us to shed another layer of ignorance in order to acquire new insight. But this work also brings with it a sense of hope, for we the people are capable of molding our own destiny, as long as we have the wisdom and courage to change things.
Brandon Royal, Author, The Little Red Writing Book
An anecdotal and passionate polemic on modern history. An unabashed racy weltanschauung that would not sit well on a White House shelf.
Stuart Wolfendale, Columnist, The Standard

CUSTOM MAID SPIN FOR NEW WORLD DISORDER
War is the health of the state. It automatically sets in motion throughout society those irresistible forces for uniformity, for passionate cooperation with the Government in coercing into obedience the minority groups and individuals which lack the larger herd sense.
Randolph Silliman Bourne
War Bob Marley
I want to thank all the soldiers - fighters, peacekeepers and peaceniks - I have had the distinct pleasure of meeting around the world. In Cyprus, Israel, America, Vietnam, Cambodia, China, Indonesia, Turkey, Greece, Korea, Japan, Germany and Hong Kong where many have been stationed, on R&R or just passing through.
I want to make special mention of the countless U.S. naval flotillas that have disgorged thousands of Americas fighting men and women on their way to or from areas of conflict, or future conflict, onto the shores and into the bars of Hong Kong that gave me the unique opportunity to discuss first hand over a drink, either on board their ship or at a girlie bar, the meaning of patriotism, love, family, country and the price one is willing knowingly to pay. The young innocents, seasoned veterans and hardened politicians. Fathers, mothers, sons and daughters all serving their country with mixed, confused emotions.
To the men and women of the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln, which has visited Hong Kong at least four times over the years, and with whom I shared 2004 Christmas cheers, heres to your safe return home!
This is their story. The story of our children and what they are needlessly fighting and dying for.
War is little more than a catalogue of mistake and misfortunes
Winston Churchill
This book started out as Chapter One of Volume II of the Custom Maid for New World Disorder trilogy. Volume I was first published in April 2004 just as the U.S. presidential election was shifting into high gear and the sporadic Iraqi insurgency was on the verge of exploding and becoming a national conflagration. Regrettably it did as I repeatedly voiced my concern it would. The criticisms I received that my concern was unpatriotic and What kind of American are you? and Why dont you just stay away from America permanently? made me stop and question both my initial concerns and predictions and the resulting criticism. My answer is this short and quick reference guide to the wars of the last half of the 20th century, the dawn of the 21st century and future potential wars. This is an expansion of the original chapter, which was limited to potential future conflicts, because I am now convinced there is a compelling need to understand war and its consequences for wars to end.
The criticism and the escalating violence in Iraq, U.S. saber rattling to China over Taiwan and North Korea, war on terrorism, increased number of U.S. troops in Afghanistan, Iraq and over 146 countries around the globe necessitated that the opening chapter of volume II be released as a book in its own right in 2005 - ahead of volume II. It could not wait to be released as part of volume II.
To end, or at least minimize, the cycle of 21st century violence humanity is inflicting on itself, America must lead the peaceful charge for a change. To do so Americans need to learn and understand the reasons for war and how future wars can be stopped. war is not the answer to hunger, oil, territorial expansion, ethnic cleansing or the survival of America. on the contrary it is its escalating destructive downfall.
Chinas re-emergence as a global power is Americas greatest challenge in the 21st century and it must be resolved peacefully. America must keep in mind the warning by Greek historian Thucydides, morethan 2, 000 years ago, that belief in the inevitability of conflict can become one of its main causes. In other words, America cannot afford to become a victim of its own political spin.
War as a political tool has to be swept out by We the maids before it is too late to enjoy our grandchildren and see them enjoy life.
I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy.
John Adams
on the war in Vietnam I sing this song
I aint got no quarrel with the Viet Cong
Muhammad Ali
Vietnam
Apocalypse Now is a surrealistic cubicle of a bar on Dung Du street in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. During the war it was a popular hangout for GIs. Once Vietnam opened up, it changed its name and started serving Americans again. The helicopter mural engulfed in cigarette smoke and the blaring sound of the Doors tune Break on Through brought a lump to my throat and a knot to my stomach as we took our seats. Scenes from Vietnam War movies flashed through my mind. Apocalypse Now, Good Morning Vietnam, Deer Hunter, Platoon, Full Metal Jacket, Hamburger Hill and 84 Charlie Mopic.
One of the many reasons I chose to live in Hong Kong is because Hong Kong has no indigenous armed forces. Until 1997, the British stationed forces in their profitable colony. Not enough, though, to fight a real war. When Japan attacked Hong Kong during World War II, the city-state fell in just 18 days. The Chinese who took over the territory in 1997 have stationed a token PLA garrison there just enough to remind everyone that Hong Kong is a special administrative region.
The year was 1993. People stared at us as they casually shuffled by. I looked around as we ordered 333 beers. Well, I see things havent fucking changed that much, muttered Hugh van Es as he looked over the place. The place still has hookers everywhere fucking hustling the gweilos. He was being approached by a middle-aged Vietnamese lady. Hey, you remember me? I hear you in town looking for Trinh. He no here. Leave for village. Hugh was visiting with an NBC News team doing stories on the 25th anniversary of the 1968 Vietnam Tet offensive. He was co-coordinating their schedule and had put the word out that he was looking for some of his old buddies from the good old days to do some advance work for him in the countryside before his visit with his distinguished guests. Hugh had been a photographer during the war and shot the oftenpublicized picture of a helicopter preparing to take off from a Saigon rooftop and leave behind a line of frantic South Vietnamese.
I had bumped into Hugh in the lobby of the Norfolk Hotel where we were both staying. I was in town on business and we decided to get together and go hit a few of the oldtime watering holes. Hugh had been one of my cosponsors when I joined the Foreign Correspondents Club in Hong Kong, where we both now live. Our office was right over there, Hugh said as we walked up Dung Du Street toward the main drag, bypassing several Vietnam Warera bars. I cant believe all the same fucking joints are still around. This street used to be mobbed with GIs being hustled. Now they hustle the fucking tourists.
