Warriors Hate War: Strategy, politicization, successes, and failures of the US Military

by Glenn Sturm

Why, after over 100 Sigma war games showed us that we could not win, did we still go into Vietnam? Why, if one military doctrine irrefutably indicates that it can succeed time after time, is it not adopted in every military action? Why do warriors hate war? Because their bosses don't understand it. What's the mission? How do we win? What is winning? Bush said that winning was when the major combat operations were ceasing. Maybe so, but knowing how to win a war while striving not to be in one makes a real warrior. Warriors Hate War: Strategy, politicization, successes, and failures of the American military by Glenn Sturm explores the military actions since WWII through lenses that reveal alternate outcomes and pose frameworks that could inform decision-making for the future of war and, more importantly, peace.

An Important Systematic Analysis

“Warriors Hate War systematically looks at the past involvement of the United States military in conflicts around the world and examines patterns and outcomes. The book brings much needed research, analysis, and synthesis, and logically proposes a better way not to repeat the dysfunctions of the past. True warriors understand, as no others can, the true cost of war. Gray Johnson, Former United States Army Company Commander”

A truly inspiring perspective from a great leader

“You can feel the integrity in every page. Glenn Sturm has lived what he writes about, and that authenticity is what makes the book so powerful. His passion for peace and understanding is evident, even as he analyzes decades of complex military operations. This book doesn't just critique. It teaches. It's thoughtful, it's real, and it gives hope.”
