Why We Fight describes the rise and maintenance of the United States military-industrial complex and its fifty-year involvement with the wars led by the United States to date, especially its 2003 Invasion of Iraq. The documentary asserts that in every decade since World War II, the American public was told a lie, so that the Government (incumbent Administration) could take them to war and fuel the military-industrial economy maintaining American political dominance in the world. Interviewed about this matter, are politician John McCain, political scientist and former-CIA analyst Chalmers Johnson, politician Richard Perle, reporter William Kristol, writer Gore Vidal, and public policy expert Joseph Cirincione.

Why We Fight documents the consequences of said foreign policy with the stories of a Vietnam War veteran whose son was killed in the September 11, 2001 attacks, and who then asked the military to write the name of his dead son on any bomb to be dropped in Iraq; and that of a twenty-three-year-old New Yorker who enlists in the United States Army because he is poor and in debt, his decision impelled by his mother's death; and a military explosives scientist who arrived to the U.S. as a refugee girl from Vietnam in 1975.

  • what is the title of the song? its really good. I watched the movie before, its really good. Hopefullly more ppl watches this movie. Thanks for uploading it!!

  • I don't think I am familiar with this song. This movie just proved to me the truth about our history. I didn't quite understand any of this as I was growing up. It sure has opened up my eyes. I have some other documentaries up.

    Let me know if you have any suggestions of other documentaries to watch. Thanks for viewing.

  • too bad there's so few views for perhaps the most relevant documentary ever made. It still frightens me how few people know just what the US has done in SEAsia alone. It's like living in a world where the nazi's won and nobody knowing about the holocaust. It's THAT bad! Damn it.
