Description
By the end his military career, Major General Smedley D. Butler was the most decorated Marine in US history, having received two medals of honor. After his service, he became an outspoken critic of US wars and wrote a scathing book called, “War Is A Racket.” The following audio clips include; In November 1934, Butler exposing an alleged fascist coup to remove President Franklin D Roosevelt from office and overthrow the U.S. government; A scathing rebuke of Roosevelt and the integrity of the upcoming 1936 election. In 1937, making a plea for the removal of all American civilians and military forces from Chinese war zone. In 1932, praising the determination, and patriotism of the Veterans Bonus Army—tens of thousands of World War I veterans who marched on Washington DC demanding early payments of their army bonuses.
