It is important to remember:

"The two facts which even now are not widely grasped, and which should be made the centre of all anti-war agitation.

1. That war against a foreign country only happens when the moneyed classes think they are going to profit from it.

2. That every war when it comes, or before it comes, is represented not as a war but as an act of self-defence against a homicidal maniac.

The essential job is to get people to recognise war propaganda when they see it, especially when it is disguised as peace propaganda."

-George Orwell


There have only ever been class wars.
