        @BeschlossDC Ike's best line came the next day, when he talked of military-industrial complex's "insidious penetration of our own minds."

        @BeschlossDC I am reminded of the warnings of Eicks speech when I think about why our country went to war with Iraq twice in Afghanistan.

        .@BeschlossDC Eisenhower's fear brilliantly portrayed in Frankenheimer's SEVEN DAYS IN MAY (1964).Problem now isn't generals but plutocrats.

        @BeschlossDC Amazing thing since Eisenhower's warning about the "Military Industrial Complex" in 1961 is that it only got worse after speech
