What is its function?
Who is it "defending"?
Why is it so enormous? Why is it stationed everywhere in the world? Why does it develop plans for war in every country on earth? Why does it seek unilateral dominance in all theaters, is there no alternative? Why is there always an assumption the next war must come, and therefore be prepared? Why is the next generation of nuclear weapons developed?
How do you distinguish between Pentagon brass and contracters, given the revolving door system? Where is the dividing line between generals and civilian policy makers?
At what stage of a crime is taking orders not an excuse? Does this vary by rank?
What's the excuse for psychological operations on the homefront?
Etc. etc.
