Simulacra and Simulation

In Simulacra and Simulation, French social theorist Jean Baudrillard argues that our "postmodern" culture is a world of
signs that have made a fundamental break from referring to "reality."

Interesting how close Baudrillard, and yes you too Junglest, both come to the link below.

What we should be asking ourselves is,
Is there really a War happening as we speak?

Or has the U.S. simulated what appears to be a War, by choosing the characters and predetermingin the actors' scripts?
