Response Jim C: This is dead on and the real motives behind "Shock and
Awe" can be found in the 1992 document "Defense Policy Guidance" and
"Rebuilding America's Defenses
http://newamericancentury.org/RebuildingAmericasDefenses.pdf which are
almost carbon copies of the infamous "Hossbach Memorandum" of
September,1939 which detailed the German nazi doctrines of "Lebensraum",
self-asserted immunity from any kind of international law, geostrategies
for a "unipolar world" and the concept of Blitzkrieg (Shock and Awe) not
only as an instrument for tactical military purposes to overwhelm
enemies and reduce potential casualties, but, more importantly, as an
instrument for deterring and any potential adversaries (military,
political, economic or ideological) or coalitions attempting to limit
U.S. superpower "unipolar" hegemony in the future.

Comment

Alvin Toffler espounded the new theoretical doctrine of war, based on a
changed set of factors in the mode of production in his 1990 book "Poweshift" and
his following book, "War and Antiwar'" expounds the political doctrine and
basis to sustain power in the new world. His 1970 book "Future Shock," his 1980
book "The Third Wave" and his 1990 book "Powershift" with the Third Wave" being
published in millions of copies in China, summarized thousands of years of
history and is the theory basis of current imperial policy.
