1 out of 5 stars Useless Left-Wing rhetoric   August 21, 2005
 0 out of 34 found this review helpful

More diatribe from the left, which should be a title of a chapter in Klein's silly short book on the Iraq War. She has more political hang ups than a dry cleaner. She simply is out of touch with reality, and is driven insane by emotional outbursts that destroy any effort at objectivity. Some of her arguments in this, and other efforts, are so ridiculous that it's hard to imagine anyone ever giving her an audience. It's truly the blind leading the blinder. Read this book if nothing more than to see how bankrupt the anti-war movement is.


1 out of 5 stars Feeling ripped off.   August 13, 2005

I saw this book at Chapters and immediately grabbed it, of course not suspecting a thing because Chapters can do no wrong. Now I find out that it's a fake and the article has been up for months and so on. Seeing as the legitimacy of this "book" has been beaten to death in the previous reviews, I'm not going to say much else on the matter.

That aside, it is an interesting article. Just don't buy the book to read it.

I saw Naomi Klein speak last month where she said she was working on a new book about Iraq that we could expect in about a year. I was suprised to see it here this early, especially since it's only 96 pages long! Turns out that this is not a new book at all -- her website says that it's just an article from Harper's magazine that has been published as a book without her consent (it's a long article, but 96 pages sounds like a stretch. The font size probably reads like a children's book). She says she has nothing to do with this book and encourages people to instead read the entire article for FREE on her website.

1 out of 5 stars "No War" is a fraud, its not by Naomi Klein   April 8, 2005
 32 out of 32 found this review helpful

"No War" by the way its cover is designed gives the illusion of being a new book by Naomi Klein. I can assure you that it is not. Don't waste your money on it. It is simply a repackaged version of something that Klein has been offering for free on her website for months. It originally was an article that appeared in Harper's magazine entitled: "Baghdad Year Zero." I am the photographer that traveled to Iraq with Klein and took the pictures to illustrate the story, so I know. Don't buy this book and support an unethical publisher who in their own small minded way are trying to profit off of the war in a microcosm of the same way that is described in Klein's writing about the original war profiteers. Instead, go to nologo.org, Klein's website, and read her statement about this book, where you can download this article for free.
