Description: |
An extraordinary and powerful polemic against war by a prominent US anti-war campaigner. |
Synopsis: |
There is no such thing as an honest war. Every war ever fought has been sold to both sides as a fight between the forces of good and evil. Politicians are willing to tell any lie to ensure the public believe they are in the right and the enemy undeniably in the wrong. David Swanson is an anti-war activist and in War is a Lie he deconstructs virtually every argument ever put forward in favour of war. Drawing on examples throughout history, including the Second World War and the Iraq War, he shows how politicians will use any excuse not simply to justify war but to continue it after the death toll has long since shown the utter futility of continuing with the bloodshed. |
