The Best War Ever: Lies, Damned Lies and the Mess in Iraq is the new Sheldon Rampton / John Stauber book on sale everywhere. View a short but powerful web movie based on the book at www.TheBestWarEver.com.
The book explains how the propaganda that misled America into war is leading to defeat. The Best War Ever is a follow-up to Weapons of Mass Deception: The Uses of Propaganda in Bush's War on Iraq, published in July 2003. That was the first book to expose the deceptions that sold the war. Although Weapons of Mass Deception was a New York Times bestseller, the same mainstream media who behaved like a government propaganda arm to cheerlead America into war largely ignored it. To bypass such censorship, this time the authors asked filmmaker Matt Thompson to produce a web movie based on the new book. It's viewable at www.TheBestWarEver.com. Check it out. You can watch the short film, order the new book, and even sign the Voters For Peace Pledge to only support politicians who make peace their priority.
