Life is now a war zone, and as such, the number of people considered disposable has grown exponentially, and this includes low income whites, poor minorities, immigrants, the unemployed, the homeless, and a range of people who are viewed as a liability to capital and its endless predatory quest for power and profits.

Henry Giroux

The longer I spent time on 'The Daily Show,' standing in front of a green screen pretending to report from war zones and hot spots around the world - most often from somewhere in the Middle East - the more I began to realize that 'The Daily Show' was radicalizing me.

War Time Zone

Even a war zone looks peaceful in most places, most of the time.

Alex Berenson

War Time Peace

I was so happy that it filmed in New York not only because it's an amazing city, but also because a lot of people across the world somehow started to think about New York as a dangerous place to be and envisioned it as some war zone after that happened.

Alicia Witt

War Art Anger

It's a war zone, my body, and one which has been through a great deal.

Amitabh Bachchan

War Great Zone

When you lose a parent at ten years old, the world seems like a much scarier place. It makes complete sense to me that I took survival courses when I was a teenager and started going to war zones as a reporter. I didn't ever want to be taken advantage of, and I wanted to be able to take care of those around me.

Anderson Cooper

War Teen Car

Conventional wisdom tells us we'll only be happier after a divorce if the marriage itself was a war zone.

Ariel Gore

Wisdom War Marriage

All I know, is that I feel extremely blessed to be on TV. It's a hard job, but real life is harder. Truth be told, playgrounds can be war zones.

Atticus Shaffer

War Truth Life

It sounds strange to say it, but you can be in a war zone and have a lot of fun. Even though war is essentially pain on all sides, human beings have the capacity to enjoy themselves. The soldiers are mostly young people, full of enthusiasm and energy, and that's an exciting thing for an old guy like me.

Bruce Cockburn

War Zone Young People

Since the early '80s, I've found myself in war zones in various parts of the world.

Bruce Cockburn

War Art Zone

Shows I've done in war zones are the greatest. The first time I was in Iraq, I kid you not, I felt so uncomfortable having the troops say, 'Thank you.' It's so deep and heartfelt.

Carlos Mencia

War Time Great

I have spent the past ten years in just about every war zone there was.

Christiane Amanpour

War Zone Years

Police do not belong in war zones.

Daniel Keys Moran

War Zone War Zone

I think there's loads of undiagnosed depression where I came from. Post-traumatic stress disorder as well. Some of the things you see as a kid are like the things you'd expect to see in a war zone, but there's no one to talk to about it because running to a psychiatrist ain't the thing.

Dizzee Rascal

War Zone You

I'm from England, and like every other great empire who stole bits of the world, there is a price to pay. And I was born in 1935. So, since I've been conscious of the world, I've either been in, or been on the periphery of, a war zone.

Don McCullin

War Great Zone

It's a war zone. Terrible things happen.

Eason Jordan

War Zone War Zone

Professionally, I made my first film at 20 in a war zone in Kosovo.

Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi

War Zone War Zone

I'd finished a dissertation, writing about how international humanitarian organizations worked with kids in war zones and then I made this transition from the academic world to officer candidate school and to the SEAL teams. It was one of the best decisions I ever made in my life.

Eric Greitens

Work War Life

In Iraq, State Department civilians and U.S. soldiers have been operating in the same location in an active war zone. While the troops have been facing insurgents, the State Department civilians have been working to rebuild institutions and infrastructure. Blackwater's role in this war evolved from this unprecedented dynamic.

Erik Prince

Work War Men

Very few people know someone who would voluntarily go into a war zone to protect a person he has never met. I know 1,000 of them, and I am proud that they are part of our team.

Erik Prince

War Art Zone

The first war zone was declared by Great Britain. She gave us and the world notice of it on the 4th day of November, 1914. The zone became effective Nov. 5, 1914.

George William Norris

War Great Zone

The reason given by the President in asking Congress to declare war against Germany is that the German government has declared certain war zones, within which, by the use of submarines, she sinks, without notice, American ships and destroys American lives.

George William Norris

Hostile states' use of proxies in war zones to inflict damage on U.S. interests and troops is a constant, longstanding concern.

Gina Haspel

I never thought I would go to Gaza. It's incredibly difficult to get into, and when you get there, it's a war zone. Then they have this beach, and there's this incredible, vibrant beach culture there, which is something that I grew up with in Southern California.

Hailey Gates

Life is now a war zone, and as such, the number of people considered disposable has grown exponentially, and this includes low income whites, poor minorities, immigrants, the unemployed, the homeless, and a range of people who are viewed as a liability to capital and its endless predatory quest for power and profits.

Henry Giroux

Domestic terrorism has opened new war zones, operating off the assumption that all Americans are potential terrorists.

Henry Giroux

I grew up in a neighborhood in Baltimore that was like a war zone, so I never learned to trust that there were people who could help me.

Jada Pinkett Smith

I worry a bit about the unknowns when it comes to travelers to the war zones in Syria and Iraq. Who don't I see? And I worry about the people who may be in their basements radicalizing that I can't see.

James Comey

I will continue to push for solutions to eliminate reliance on hired guns to provide security in war zones.

Jan Schakowsky

It's always disappointing to come across phony do-gooders. And it's easy to scoff at celebrities working in war zones.

Janine di Giovanni

There are no subtleties in a war zone. I think that's why comedy does so well there. It goes right for the gut. So those punch lines start penetrating the bullet-proof vests.

Jeff Ross

You can easily die racing to cover a bank robbery as you can in a war zone.

Jessica Savitch

Filming a story set in a war zone in the '60s was such a treat, as it gave me so much scope to dive into.

Jessie Buckley

I would come home and re-create every movie. Our backyard became a battleship, a war zone, a western town.

John Candy

In every war zone that I've been in, there has been a reality and then there has been the public perception of why the war was being fought. In every crisis, the issues have been far more complex than the public has been allowed to know.

John le Carre

I wish I was the kind of writer who would go to a war zone and write about something that's meaningful and important to people, but that's not my area of coverage.

Jonathan Ames

The artistic element of Manhattan has kind of moved to Brooklyn. Has it changed it? Yeah. Has it ruined it? I would say no. It is what it is. I say better that than an urban war zone.

Julian Casablancas

People always seem to assume that we have a full, back-up support team - make-up, costume and a driver - but usually, in a war zone, there's only me and the cameraman.

Kate Adie

War zones are dangerous, protests can be violent, also, natural disasters are difficult to cover, so there are going to be risks.

Kate Adie

I never desired to go into war zones. I never had any thought about it. It sort of just happened as part of the job.

Kate Adie

I think it is rather heroic to go into a war zone where everyone is trying to kill you, and you have no way of shooting back.

Kerry Greenwood

You have two options when you approach a hostile checkpoint in a war zone, and each is a gamble. The first is to stop and identify yourself as a journalist and hope that you are respected as a neutral observer. The second is to blow past the checkpoint and hope the soldiers guarding it don't open fire on you.

Lynsey Addario

I think when I started going to war zones and started covering humanitarian issues, it became a calling because I realized I had a voice, and I can give people without a voice a voice... and now it is something that sits inside of me every day.

Lynsey Addario

My life isn't always at risk, even if I'm in a war zone. A lot of these places have areas of calm, so covering war doesn't necessarily mean being shot at all the time.

Lynsey Addario

I've gone to war zones before and never got shot.

Manute Bol

We experience problem-solving sessions as war zones, we view competing ideas as enemies, and we use problems as weapons to blame and defeat opposition forces. No wonder we can't come up with real lasting solutions!

Margaret J. Wheatley

In a war zone you know exactly where the threats are coming from. I plan my way in and we plan our way out and you're there for a limited period of time.

Maria Ressa

The thing that strikes you most about being a soldier in a war zone and in action to the small extent that I was, when actually people start shooting, which happened to me a couple of times, everything goes on automatic and there's a feeling of tremendous elevation and even elation.

Mark Helprin

Please God, I'll never be in a war zone, but everything I sort of know about people who come back is that it's a hard transition to make. I mean, even if you've not been in a war, even if you've just been in the Forces, you come back and probably have more fights in civilian life.

Martin Freeman

I spent my summers in a war zone because my parents were afraid that if we didn't go back to Palestine every single summer, we'd grow up to be Madonna.

Maysoon Zayid

My time in war zones have been fleeting and infrequent. I've been to Iraq. I've been to Afghanistan. I've been to other places where I've collected hazardous duty pay.
