For anyone who's interested, Michael Sherry, a fairly prominent American
historian, has written an intriguing book called 'The Rise of American Air
Power: The Creation of Armageddon'. Perhaps his most interesting argument is
that America's reliance on air-power is in line with its isolationist past,
that America uses air-power in order to involve itself in conflicts and
avoid involvement all at the same time (!!!). Kosovo was a perfect example
of this. Iraq, too.
