While this is undoubtedly very good background information, I am somewhat troubled that there is no mention at all regarding my good friend and admirer, Chalmers Johnson. Dr.Johnson’s trilogy, which includes “Bases” plus his final (before his death) radical representation of what to do about it is groundbreaking. We all owe a certain debt of gratitude to the courageous and scholarly contribution of a true American patriot.
