Thomas Barnett The Pentagon’s new map for war and peace

June 25, 2008


Video: Ted Talks via YouTube

“In this bracingly honest and funny talk, international security strategist Thomas P.M. Barnett outlines a post-Cold War solution for the foundering US military: Break it in two. He suggests the military re-form into two groups: a Leviathan force, a small group of young and fierce soldiers capable of swift and immediate victories; and an internationally supported network of System Administrators, an older, wiser, more diverse organization that actually has the diplomacy and power it takes to build and maintain peace.” - Ted Talks

Problems described as catastrophic successes… I love it and now own it!

As for the rest of this video I have no problems, in fact it’s very funny and informative, except I do have problems with the IMF, whom I do not trust… because they are bankers.
