Anti War Banners and Quotes

Andrew said Nov 5, 3:52 AM:

 

Over the years there have been some very clever, thought provoking anti-war slogans.  I thought it might be interesting to compile a list of those that have really hit the nail on the head.  eg.


War does not, and cannot, prove which side is right, but only which side is stronger.
