Oh! That’s a War!

James Bovard, January 04, 2011

This great Gahan Wilson cartoon from the January 3, 2011 New Yorker captures the cluenessness (real or pretended) of Washington policymakers who pretend that U.S. drones and bombing raids on foreign countries are merely expressions of American good will…

    Reminds me of the Farside Brain Surgeons: "Hey! That was a good one! Try it, Johnson. Put your finger right there where my thumb is."

    This is a cool cartoon. You could also say: The american way to "give away" freedom, democrazy, peace and friendship. rofl. Thats why we say, that the new slogan for 2011 should be:

    Make love – not war

    Old fashioned and not really new. But it is like fashion: It is always returning ;-)

    Make love – not war

    In the minds of too many Americans today, these are one and the same.

    I'm inclined to think that there are more people in the world who have had a more detrimental experience of the love of war than Americans. Maybe one day they'll experience a 'war of love'. Most Americans, however, might think that was a porn title.
