Benjamin Abelow’s book has garnered praise from the likes of ACURA’s own Jack Matlock who praised How the West Brought War to Ukraine as “A brilliant, remarkably concise explanation of the danger that U.S. and NATO military involvement in Ukraine has created.” And Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. wrote: “This is such an important book. I have read it three times. It is extraordinarily clear not only in language but also in thought. I can’t recommend it highly enough.” A link to the PDF is here, courtesy of Ben Abelow.

The book is a short and easy read—I finished it back in 2022.

I first came across Benjamin Abelow’s analysis of the Ukraine war as a lengthy article published on Medium in May. I found the depth and thoroughness of his article impressive and complimented him on it. When he told me that he’d expanded it into a short book, I was intrigued and offered to review it. I was not disappointed.

Review of How the West Brought War to Ukraine: Understanding How US and NATO Policies Led to Crisis, War, and the Risk of Nuclear Catastrophe, by Benjamin Abelow, Siland Press

The Ukraine war has generated great controversy, but of one point there can be no doubt, and Benjamin Abelow, a physician with a longstanding interest in public affairs, has properly emphasized this in his brief and excellent book. The policy of the United States toward the war, and more generally toward the Russian regime of Vladimir Putin, has been one of direct confrontation rather than peaceful accommodation. It is hardly a surprise that supporters of a noninterventionist policy have criticized the United Sates for this, but a number of those in the foreign policy “establishment” have done so as well, and Abelow has been able to secure the endorsement of some of these for his book. Jack Matlock Jr., for example, the last American ambassador to the Soviet Union, writes that the book is a “brilliant, remarkably concise explanation of the danger that U.S. and NATO [North Atlantic Treaty Organization] military involvement in Ukraine has created.”
