Abstract | Identifies the characteristics of rhetoric in American justification for war and the portrayal of the enemy as a savage aggressor. Discusses the use of contrasts--force and freedom, irrationality and rationality, aggression and defense--to generate values which subordinate the ideal of peace to the necessity of preserving freedom.
