War Made Easy: How Presidents & Pundits Keep Spinning Us To Death

Based on the best-selling book of the same title, "War Made Easy: How Presidents & Pundits Keep Spinning Us to Death" exposes the practice of promoting a prolonged policy of intrusive militarism under the patriotic banner of the "War on Terror."
