Product Description
by Two-Time Congressional Medal of Honor Recipient:
Major General Smedley D. Butler, USMC, Retired, a marine's marine tells the whole truth about the real costs of war in this 1930's classic.
This marine counted his Oath to the Constitution as superior to all other worldly allegiances. Smedley Butler earned the right to be heard. He spoke the truth to power. The establishment didn't want to hear him then - and they sure won't want to hear this message now.
What has changed since General Butler exposed the corruption of his day? There are now more wars for profit, more of our troops deployed all over the world for all the wrong reasons, and more corruption and cronyism. We now deploy mercenaries and call them sub-contractors. We are witnessing the complete integration of big business and government - the very definition of Fascism.
As you read this powerful pamphlet you will be able to make your own comparisons and observations. There are conspiracy theories and conspiracy facts. This text will give some of the tools you need to discern the truth. We need a few more good men - men like Smedley Butler - men of truth.
This pamphlet is an absolute must read for every citizen of every country - especially for every American who still believes we ought to be governed by the Constitution.
George Washington and the rest of the Founding Fathers were in agreement with General Butler: Free Commerce with All Nations - Entangling Alliances with None. Butler exposes the dark reality that wars are almost always for the profits of the few at the expense of the many. If you want to lose your delusions - and help others to do the same - you must read this pamphlet.
SPECIAL BONUS: The War Prayer by Mark Twain - his most controversial work - released only after his death - another eye opener - short and extremely powerful.
The choice is yours: keep your delusions or open your eyes and the eyes of others.

"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen."
—Samuel Adams
