As the U.S. pushes for another war that no one seems to want, the Open Media Pamphlet Series has published a clear-eyed analysis that deconstructs, piece by piece, the Bush administration's unconvincing sales pitch for war. A fast read, this potent little book is packed with precisely the information and analysis needed to understand the issues. -David Barsamian
