The AIDS War: Propaganda, Profiteering and Genocide from the Medical-Industrial Complex is a 1993 work about the politics of HIV/AIDS by John Lauritsen, in which Lauritsen argues against the idea that HIV causes AIDS. Lauritsen calls the HIV theory of AIDS "preposterous" and "the most colossal blunder in medical history." The AIDS War consists partly of previously published articles; it includes an abridged version of a 1987 interview with molecular biologist Peter Duesberg, which had first been published in full in the New York Native. The AIDS War received several positive reviews, as well as some criticism.
