Sometimes you just have to agree to disagree, no matter how hard that might be. I know his mind won’t be changed, so there’s no point trying.

““Soldiers are dumb pawns. Military men are just dumb, stupid, animals to be used as pawns in foreign policy.” Henry Kissinger

The entire Federal government in itself is a hawk. There is 100% bi-partisan agreement between the two major parties that the Federal government has the right and responsibility to commit acts of aggression against anyone who opposes it. Whether it’s a farmer who dares to sell raw milk and cheese without the FDA’s blessing, a business that doesn’t comply with a myriad of Federal environmental laws, an individual or family that doesn’t comply with Federal tax laws, or a foreign nation that has not adequately ensured to the Fed’s that it doesn’t have a weapon that only the Federal government has deployed (ask the people of Hiroshima or Nagasaki), the Federal government is a perpetual war machine.

Your description of it as a ‘rabid obsession’ is right on. What makes a person like that? It’s bizarre.

I have a family member who is retired navy and a neo-con. He practically salivates when he talks about the inevitable war that Iran is going to “draw us into” (his words). I honestly think sometimes that he can’t wait for it! Of course this is the same man who believes that the US can be fixed if we just elect enough good conservatives, like Romney.
