ADDICTED TO WAR -- WHY THE U.S. CAN'T KICK MILITARISM (UPDATED TO INCLUDE THE WAR IN IRAQ) |
|
"Addicted to War
is must reading for all Americans who are concerned with understanding
the true nature of U.S. foreign policy and how it affects us here at
home." "Addicted to War
is a rare gift to the American people. It should be read by every person
who cares about the human condition. This book reveals truths that all
Americans need to understand if we are ever to experience peace and
justice for all the people of the earth." "This book
analyzes why men are addicted to fighting and killing -- an addiction
that could, in this the nuclear age, destroy all life on earth, creating
the final epidemic of the human race." "Addicted to War
is a tremendous tool that could change the course of our nation. It must
be published in the millions and taught in every school in America." "As we're
goose-stepping our way into the new millennium, Addicted to War provides
us with an opportunity to see ourselves as others see us." "Political comics
at its best. Bitterly amusing, lively, and richly informative. For
people of all ages who want to understand the link between U.S.
militarism, foreign policy, and corporate greed at home and abroad." "For those who
have created a wall in their mind to resist questioning what the
powers-that-be have taught them, this book may be the right battering
ram." "Addicted to War
makes one point perfectly clear: We can bomb the world to pieces, but
we can't bomb it into peace!" "The enormous
criminal impact of U.S. militarism on the people of the world and the
U.S. is hard to grasp. This book makes it easier to understand. Now we
must act." "Addicted to War
should be required reading for every student in America. I encourage
educators to use it to help students understand the consequences of U.S.
militarism for people here and around the world." "Our young people
will learn more about the cult of militarism in this short and accurate
book by Joel Andreas than they might learn in their first twelve years
of schooling." "Addicted to War
could not be more timely. It shows that the current war dance by the
Bush administration is just the latest in a long series of foreign
adventures that cause more damage than reward for us as a country. This
book is one of the best tools we could hope for in making a transition
from the U.S. being an empire to being just one nation in a community of
nations. Use it, and change the world!" "The idiocy of war
is apparent. What is amazing is that no matter the tracts, essays and
books telling us this through the ages, we resist that truth. Hopefully
this political comic by Joel Andreas can pierce the tough hide of man's
mind and heart." "How can we wean
ourselves from our dismal addiction to war? This book is a fine
starting point. Reading it will help people get on the road to
recovery."
