Once again, a simply false claim. There is plenty of military history; there is in fact plenty of "great man" history - another chunky tome on Ike every few years, e.g. - but they don't do it in a way that makes reactionaries feel comfortable. And that's a national crisis. Allegedly.
Put wind or solar on the land that grows ethanol corn. Run electric vehicles off the power. Use 99% less land per mile driven, at far lower cost. Let farmers use the freed-up land to do actual farmer stuff, like growing real food for humans and being good custodians of land for future generations.
