Selections from CovertAction Magazine.
CovertAction has been the most authoritative international magazine
in its field. This book brings together a selection of key articles from the
magazine presenting a comprehensive background to the terrorist attacks of
September 11, 2001, and the current "war against terrorism." The
editors convincingly show how the Bush Doctrine of pre-emptive war continues
the strategy developed by the Regan and former Bush administrations in Central
America, Palestine, Iraq, Afghanistan and North Korea.
Contributors include Noam Chomsky, Eqbal Ahmad, Edward Herman, Jane Hunter,
Philip Agee, William Blum, Jack Colhoun, Israel Shahak, Ramsey Clark and many
others.
"The essays in this collection could hardly be more timely, or
informative and cannot be ignored by those who hope to gain a serious
understanding of what is unfolding today." Noam Chomsky
"This book provides a critical and historical perspective on both the
nature of terrorism and the manner in which it is portrayed in the mainstream
media." Edward S. Herman
