Truly a Voice Crying in the Wilderness

Chalmers Johnson, who passed away this week, was a frequent contributor to TomDispatch.com, an Internet voice against American imperialism.

Here is a trenchant piece about his warnings to Americans about the consequences of the militarism which has characterized our country since WW II. In it there are several references to James Madison's timeless teachings.

Chalmers Johnson was truly a voice crying in the wilderness.

Once again, I recommend visiting TomDispatch.com to read what a number of insightful writers are offering on the subject of American Imperialism and the likely tragic consequences for American democracy.
