War Made Easy:How Presidents & Pundits Keep Spinning Us to Death" film

Norman Solomon will speak in connection with the screening of new film War Made Easy: How Presidents & Pundits Keep Spinning Us to Death." It's based on his book, is narrated by Sean Penn, and is earning rave reviews: "Superb" (Howard Zinn); "Chilling and
persuasive" (The Nation); "Damning" (Variety); "A tour de force" (editor of "An Inconvenient Truth ").
"War Made Easy" is now entering its third week of a theatrical run at the
Roxie in San Francisco. If the movie succeeds there and at the Elmwood in
Berkeley (as of Sept. 7), it will help our efforts to bring it to theaters
across the country. So please come see "War Made Easy," spread the word and
send this email to your Bay Area friends.

The movie uses stunning archival video to expose a 50-year pattern of
White House deception and media propaganda that has dragged our country
into one military intervention after another from Vietnam to Iraq. But
it's not just about villains - rare footage spotlights heroes who have
resisted the war barrage: people like Sen. Wayne Morse, Rep. Barbara
Lee
and Phil Donahue.
