Fisk has said that journalism must
"challenge authority — all authority — especially so when governments and
politicians take us to war."At a time when Canada is
rushing to support Israel’s aggression against Palestine, and Obama’s
acceleration of the US war in Afghanistan, Fisk will erase the
propaganda behind Canada’s justifications, and reveal what are the
consequences.
Fisk has published a number of books such
as “Pity the Nation : Lebanon at War”. His most famous work, "The
Great War for Civilisation : The Conquest of the Middle East" (2005), has
been followed by “The Age of the Warrior : Selected Writings” (2008). The
last two books will be available at the event for $25 each.
Presented by the Montreal Citizens Forum.
