Colonel Sam Gardiner's account of how war was sold to the public in both the Afghanistan and Iraq campaigns is essential reading.
Its implications are chilling: what it records is how public money and state resources were deployed in a deliberate US and UK campaign which amounted to "psychological warfare" directed against the people of these democracies.
Please read and distribute this as widely as possible. In particular if you have contacts with serious journalists please tune them in to this story.
