概要
This episode examines the evolution of United States military doctrine and foreign policy through the lens of the "Shock and Awe" strategy employed in the 2003 Iraq War. It discusses how this approach, focused on technological dominance, rapid engagements, and increased reliance on Special Forces, shaped a flawed military paradigm driven by imperial hubris.
The analysis contrasts this aggressive strategy with earlier post-Cold War theories that favored limited and collaborative interventions under democratic constraints. Drawing lessons from Vietnam and the Iraq campaigns, the episode argues that the "Shock and Awe" doctrine has left the US military overextended and strategically vulnerable, especially in the face of emerging conflicts such as a potential war with Iran.
