The same old same old foreign policy of military first does not enhance our national security. On this show historian Leon Fink, author of Undoing the Liberal World Order, sees that the causes of terrorism are untouched by our reliance on neoliberal, top down military approaches. People in third world countries see us as militarists who do nothing to help them. But we have in fact implemented better policies, helping impoverished suffering people and it’s worked in places like South Africa, Costa Rica, and India.  Addressing the causes of suffering and anger works far better than bombs and bullets. And is far less expensive.
