Technologically enabled "virtuous wars" have produced
a new virtual alliance: The Military-Industrial-Media-Entertainment Network (a.k.a MIME-NET). In the 21st century, The MIME-NET has
become the 'fifth-dimension' of U.S. hegemony. Fought in the same
manner they are represented through real-time global surveillance,
media dissimulation, and network-centric warfare, virtuous wars deter,
discipline and destroy the "enemy" from a distance. An all-too-real
matrix MIME-NET, seamlessly merges the production, representation, and
execution of war. We learn how to kill but not take responsibility for
it; we encounter 'death' but not its tragic consequences; we now face
not just the confusion but the pixilation of war and game on the same
screen.
