This book takes a sharp, unflinching look at the vast deceptions surrounding our country's bloodiest battles. From the Spanish-American War to World War I and II, from Vietnam War to the recent wars in Kosovo, Iraq, and Afghanistan, this book suggests that each war effort has produced three types of deceptions: lies told about alleged threats to America (such as weapons of mass destruction)
propaganda during the war
and myths that are repeated after the war to help support future aggressions
The sad fact is most Americans have little or no knowledge about the real motivations behind our nation's devastating wars. This book will change all of that as it uncovers the myriad lies and teaches readers how we can spot further myths, untruths, and manipulations in the war rhetoric of politicians. With the war in Iraq becoming increasingly unpopular, this book will cover a very timely, very urgent topic and put this latest war-and the manipulations surrounding it-in an historical context.
