"There's worse things than being centrist, honey..." #4

There's nothing centrist about Howard Zinn. Maybe you've heard of him. But I hadn't until I saw the film "Howard Zinn - You Can't Be Neutral on a Moving Train"

Here are some quotes from the film (and by Howard Zinn)

"...Wars are always accompanied by lies....wars are always accompanied by deceptions...behind war is... basic motive - expansion, power, economics, business, really..."

"I'm supposing, or perhaps only hoping that our future may be found in the past fugitive moments of compassion rather than in the solid centuries of warfare." - discussing his book, "A People's History of the United States"
