WAR IS A RACKET!

This is the real speech re-enacted by an actor. The speech says it all in its denounciation of the Military-Industrial Complex and government. U.S. Marine Corps Major General Smedley Butler was only one of 19 people ever awarded the Medal of Honor twice and the only person to be awarded a Marine Corps Brevet Medal and a Medal of Honor for two different actions. In 1934 there was an attempted coup in the United States that was thwarted largely due to the efforts of Butler. What he says is true worldwide, USA is just the pioneer, taking over from Ol' Britain.
