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

Narrated by Sean Penn
Featuring Norman Solomon

War Made Easy reaches into the Orwellian memory hole to expose a 50-year pattern of government deception and media spin that has dragged the United States into one war after another from Vietnam to Iraq. Narrated by actor and activist Sean Penn, the film exhumes remarkable archival footage of official distortion and exaggeration from LBJ to George W. Bush, revealing in stunning detail how the American news media have uncritically disseminated the pro-war messages of successive presidential administrations

P.S. PM me if someone are interested to see "Battle for Haditha" and "Beaufort". Will share links.

Bump. I watched Battle of Haditha on channel 4 (uk) earlier in the week, terristial tv has been flooded with Iraq stuff marking the 5th year of invasion, Battle of Haditha in particular was quite an emotionally charged programme, would recommend "10 days to war" series of programmes if they're available on the internet, I believe I saw them on BBC tv.

Going to watch War Made Easy now, haven't seen it before, and I keep forgetting who Sean Penn is.
