The Old Lie Tuesday, Feb. 17, 2004 The Old Lie
Old Annie and I enjoyed the play very much, so I made the right choice to go there. It struck me later how current the message is in 'Dulce et Decorun Est'. The last 2 lines are: 'The old Lie: Dulce et Decorum est, Pro patria mori'. It is right and proper to die for your country. Of course it is being said that the war in Iraq was unjust, that it was based on a lie.
