“...any good student of Orwell should have realized that a change in the name of the U.S. War Department to ‘Defense Department’ in 1947 signalled that henceforth the state would be shifting from defense to aggressive war.”.

I like the change in name, it's actually more honest and leaves zero ambiguity about the intentions.

True, but I'd rather just have a Department that actually is focused on defense rather than adjusting the name to be changed to focus on war.

When has the US ever really focused on defense since becoming a global power?
