Street Art and the War on Terror: How The World's Best Graffiti Artists Said No to the Iraq War

From Strand Bookstore

When Bush/Blair ignored opposition from their electorates and the UN, and launched the War on Iraq, they wrapped it up as a "War on Terror", in an attempt to conflate the attacks on the WTC on 9/11 in NYC and Saddam Hussein's non-existent 'weapons of mass destruction". Public opnion, despite a collaborative media that mostly accepted the Bush/Blair line unquestioningly, was not fooled. Millions around the world turned out to demonstrate. Suddenly street art acquired new, visceral significance as the voice of democratic opposition. Brilliantly executed, provocative & global, this work here speaks directly to those in opposition.
