@UltimateSuperiority omg what? I seriously don't watch tv, go to the movies, or play video games so if portal is from a show, movie, or game I wouldn't know.
I like his commitment against war. But hes stright up lying saying that war didn't exist in pre-history. War isn't in our genese, but fighting for survival was selective bred for. Observe our closest ancestors and those gorrialz fight all day and even kill each other's babies. This guy is obviously picking and choosing his facts...
@cajunincense - War is not the same thing as struggling / fighting for survival. War is industrial killing on the scale of nations and countries. Primitive man may have killed others for various reasons, one-on-one or in small groups. Individual killing is not ''war'. Primitive man did not get together in groups of hundreds, thousands or tens of thousands and go attack other groups on distant lands for the purpose of killing them or stealing their land, etc...
@carltonbranchto - very impt distinction that your post makes, thank you!
It is very clear to me that the points David Swanson makes against the incitement and perpetuation of war are both valid and irrefutable. I would suggest that anyone who argues in favor of war examine their own motives...
Bush Jr lied to us about Iraq with a straight face. Hundreds of lies from his lips, out in the open, and a rubber stamp congress at his beckon call. The American people waving the flags across the land and proudly wearing the bumper stickers on their cars and trucks. Have to be partriotic and support all these lies and deception from Jr. Millions of Iraqis and thousands of soliders killed on false pretense but it's unpatriotic to be truthful so the truth is ignored, denied, and of no account.
This could have been better, but after introducing his thesis that all wars going back into the past are based on lies, he spends the next hour destroying that thesis by claiming that specifically American wars, particularly modern ones are different and what is bad. His arguments have potential, but his disdain for modern America, especially of those on the right, come out as mere leftist propaganda. Had he focused on historical wars from around the world, this talk would have had meat.
This is a "gleaming" video. =p

@cajunincense I disagree with you, and have to agree with carltonbranchto about whether or not there was war in pre-historic time.
