The debut of U.S. imperial ambitions
William Loren Katz has an essay on the History
News Network that looks at the history of the U.S. occupation of the Philippines
as analogous to the current situation in Iraq. The essay mentions the events in
Hawaii of 1893 only in passing, but it provides a good historical context for
the purported annexation of Hawaii in 1898.
