Gabriel Kolko: Elections, Alliances and the American Empire: "Alliances have been a major cause of wars throughout modern history, removing inhibitions that might otherwise have caused Germany, France and countless nations to reflect much more cautiously before embarking on death and destruction. The dissolution of all alliances is a crucial precondition of a world without wars.... the United States will be more prudent, and the world will be far safer, only if it is constrained by a lack of allies and isolated. And that is happening."
