Gore Vidal's "Perpetual War for Perpetual Peace"

Paper Summary:

This paper expounds on the theme expressed in Gore Vidal's book on American foreign policy, which suggests that the attacks of September 11 and the bombing of the federal building in Oklahoma City are not actions of simple "evil- doers", but follow a more complex and more difficult-to-grasp pattern, which cannot simply be catalogued as 'evil doings'.

From the Paper:

"Anti- Americanism, non- patriotism, pertinent observations, anti- Bushism, opinions? Strangely enough, depending on the point of view we choose to adopt and the perspective wherefrom we wish to judge his collection of essays, all of the above seem appropriate descriptions for Gore Vidal's book, "Perpetual War for Perpetual Peace"."
