100 years ago World War I began. What lessons have we learned since then? How had the lead-up to the Great War affected our government's policies, and how has the outcome affected how we plan and budget for future conflicts? American leadership in the world today is seen as waning, and isolationistic ideologies are growing. We should not forget that a strong U.S. presence abroad ensures safety and prosperity for all. What are the lessons from WWI for U.S. military and political leaders? Join us as we examine how these important lessons can inform today's American foreign policy and military engagement around the world.

The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Serbia was the immediate cause of WW I.
One of the most powerful lessons is the fact that nobody remembers why we got into Big Mistake #1.
I ask today's war lovers that question, but they fail to make the connection between then and now, when the rationale is certainly no clearer, is constantly shifting, and always gets lost in the noise and chaos of ameriKan aggression against those weaker than itself.
War is a racket. There's no hope for ameriKa until ameriKans get that through their thick little heads. Maybe the like rackets!
USA! USA! USA! Bringing you democracy, or else! there were strains of VD that were incurable, and they were first found in the Philippines and then transmitted to the Korean working girls via US military. The 'incurables' we were told were first taken back to a military hospital in the Philippines to quietly die. – 4um

WW 1 was caused by England, France and the US because Germany was going to build the Berlin to Baghdad railroad, which would have killed England's and Freance's shipping business. The RR would have brought goods and oil to Europe faster and safer than ships
