Peter Beinart: The United States doesn t just bomb its enemies It chokes them

Peter Beinart: The United States doesn’t just bomb its enemies. It chokes them. Our ‘secondary sanctions’ look to starve other nations into submission (Chris Gash | The New York Times) America’s Other Forever War By Peter Beinart | For The New York Times   | Feb. 16, 2021, 3:00 p.m. “It is past time,” Joe Biden pledged last year, “to end the forever wars.” He’s right. But his definition of war is too narrow. For decades, the United States has supplemented its missile strikes and Special Operations raids with a less visible instrument of coercion and death. America blockades weaker adversaries, choking off their trade with the outside world. It’s the modern equivalent of surrounding a city and trying to starve it into submission. Wonks call this weapon “secondary sanctions.” The more accurate term would be “siege.”
