Product Overview
Since World War II, the United States has repeatedly posited itself as a defender of democracy, using its military might to promote freedom abroad even as it ascended to the status of the worlds only superpower. The answer to almost every international problem, it seems, has been American military interventionwhich is always pitched as a disinterested, noble attempt to deal with a crisis.
In Americas Deadliest Export, William Blum mounts a powerful case against this beliefand against postwar American foreign policy in general. Stripping away the lies that have hidden Americas true agenda, Blum reveals the real goalsand brutal consequencesof American militarism.
