War Is A Lie is a thorough refutation of every major argument used to
justify wars, drawing on evidence from numerous past wars, with a focus
on those that have been most widely defended as just and good. This is a
handbook of sorts, an engaging, always informative manual that can be
used to debunk future lies before the wars they're deployed to justify
have any chance to begin. Veteran antiwar activist Daniel Ellsberg calls
War Is A Lie "a terrific tool for recognizing and resisting war lies
before it's too late." This updated and expanded edition outlines
lessons from America's most recent wars, what can be done to end
warmaking, and an epilogue that analyzes new trends in war lying and in
resistance to it. No one to whom you give this book can claim they
haven't been warned!
