There have been a few writers and other artists, including some of the greatest poets (like e.e.cummings) who understood that if you really wanted wars to end then the truth must be told about them.
The Guardian, UK is the best news source to read, they have the gumption and integrity enough to call torture by its name and not its euphemisms.
One of my biggest disappointments with President Obama is his reluctance to dig into the steaming shitpile of depavity that Bush/Cheney left on the rug of the Oval Office by their unjust, expensive, and demented wars. They lied to get them started and they have relentlessly suppressed the truth of them since the beginning. Had they told anything close to the truth the wars would have never started. Had they once, just fucking once, told the truth about them they would have been ended long ago.
It is long past time for the reckoning.
Long.Fucking.
Past.
