Slouching Toward Catastrophe: How the Obama Administration's Defense Policies Jeopardize America and the Free World (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781499564617)

Since 2009, the Obama Administration has been engaged in policies that have had an extremely adverse effect on the military capabilities of the United States. This has included massive reductions in defense spending and in arms control policies that have threatened to erode the U.S. nuclear deterrent. All the while, America's adversaries have been increasing their military potential, and have begun to behave in a belligerent manner on the world stage. In this report, Dr. David M. Walsh examines the dangerous course being taken by the Obama Administration, focusing on the effects on the services and on the nuclear balance not only with Russia and China but such powers as North Korea and Iran. He also discusses the threats to the vital interests of the United States and the capabilities of its most likely adversaries. If present policies are not reversed, he warns, the result could be a major war akin to those of the Twentieth Century, one that America could lose.
