Often accidently called Deus Ex 2, Invisible War is a game set in the Deus Ex universe, 20 years after the Collapse (a series of fictional events portrayed at the end of the PCRPG Deus Ex.)
Although characters from Deus Ex are present, they are in no way connected with the plot of Deus Ex.
Unlike Deus Ex, Invisible War is not a CRPG, but a First-Person Adventure. The Hero/Heroine of the Adventure is Alex D., a test subject removed from Area 51 merely weeks before the collapse. The Player starts as being transferred out of Chicago during a massively-destructive Terrorist Attack by the Knights Templar. They must proceed to worldwide locations from Seattle to Antartica to learn about the conspiracy of the two factions the WTO and the Order.
At the end of the game, the player must choose who will rule the world by obeying their orders.
Although it is a decent game, it is shunned for it's inaccurate physics engine and frowned upon by Deus Ex.

Get the Invisible Warmug. A war in which the attacked country poses no direct or imminent threat to the attacker. To be differentiated from preemptive war, in which the attacker is in clear danger of being attacked.
The US is an old hand at staging preventive wars. Through clever use of propaganda to infuse nationalism and support for its wars among the population it is able to attack and invade sovereign countries under the guise of "liberation" or "preemptive attack".
See also War with Iraq.

I'll go and punch a blind person in a wheelchair on the street and call it a preventive attack. He was clearly going for my wallet!

Get the Preventive warmug. A pointless war in which Great Britain and the United States beat the shit out of each other and got nothing for it.
Canadian:We won the War of 1812 eh?
American:Nooooo!! We burned down Toronto haha!!!
Canadian:But we burned down the White House eh?
Britain:No we did.

Get the [War of 1812] mug. The most political and metal of the Gwar albums. I recommend it as a must buy along with every other fucking Gwar CD.

Get the War Facemug. people who have nothing better to do than blame other people, and annoy the shit out of everyone else. people who instantly think that the 'government' must be to blame so they arrogantly annoy people, waste time, resources and money to bitch about something that they will have no effect on.

Get the war protestermug. From the British point of view, an annoying distraction from the main task of beating Napoleon.
From the American point of view, time to fight back against the British policy of pressganging US citizens into the Royal Navy.
From the Canadian point of view, a War of Liberation against a piece of naked US aggression. The US believed it was their "manifest destiny" to control the whole of the North American continent (hence also the war against Mexico). This remained their dominant philosophy, well into the twentieth century and arguably they still haven't got it out of their system.

The continued existence of the Dominion of Canada proves that the US lost the War of 1812. The British had already revoked the pressganging policy a few days before hostilities began. If it wasn't for the absurd Louisiana campaign, no myth of victory, or even a draw, would have persisted.
