My personal opinion is that if someone writes honestly about war, it will inherently be anti-war.

In time of war, truth is always replaced by propaganda.

If truth is the first victim of war, then read on - I've got some great lies for you this month.

Truth engenders hatred of truth. As soon as it appears, it is the enemy.

It's often been observed that the first casualty of war is the truth. But that's a lie, too, in its way. The reality is that, for most wars to begin, the truth has to have been sacrificed a long time in advance.

Many intelligence reports in war are contradictory; even more are false, and most are uncertain.

I actually think every war movie is an antiwar movie in its own way - with the exception of some of the propaganda movies.

Truth is always served by great minds, even if they fight it.

Make no mistake: the anti-war voices long for us to lose any war they cannot prevent.

The truth is that I oppose the Iraq war, just as I opposed the Vietnam War, because these two conflicts have weakened the U.S. and diminished our standing in the world and our national security.
