I was interested in finding information about this topic, past or present (i.e. Iraq and other historical wars that the U.S. fought in). A search on the messageboards for “Freedom Speech Wartime” came up with nothing, and a google search did not leave me very satisfied.

```
 If anyone can give me a few links, either comprehensive discussions of this topic on the meffage board here (which is usually more fun to read) or just outside links anyone thinks are interesting.

```

Thanks.

P.S. This seems super obvious re-reading the body of this message, but this is the topic I chose for my US History paper; any fun links that are interesting on their own and not as formal or relevant to a paper are also appreciated.
