War is Sell
How do you sell a war? Armed with words, pictures and advertising techniques, war propagandists fight for the hearts and minds of the public. This documentary uses archival footage ranging from World War I to Iraq, and interviews with various researchers in an attempt to understand whether we as human beings are hard-wired to wage war, or whether we require encouragement.
