Enough Already
Time to End the War on Terrorism
Why people recommend it
Enough Already by Scott Horton is a detailed historical critique of American foreign intervention and the ongoing war on terror. On The Joe Rogan Experience, Dave Smith recommended the book to Joe Rogan, describing it as an incredible and comprehensive history of all the recent terror wars and suggesting it is the definitive text to read to understand these conflicts. Similarly, on the Lex Fridman Podcast, Lex Fridman brought up the book while interviewing the author, noting the immense financial and human costs that these conflicts inflicted upon both American citizens and the people of Afghanistan. Fridman used the book's findings to question how the public was misled into prolonged military engagements. Both podcast appearances highlighted Horton's rigorous documentation of the military-industrial complex and the devastating geopolitical consequences of interventionist foreign policies. The publication serves as an essential resource for readers seeking an unvarnished account of modern military history and the political motivations driving endless overseas wars.
