The management of savagery : how America's national security state fueled the rise of al Qaeda, Isis, and Donald Trump
Blumenthal, Max, 1977-2019
Books, Manuscripts
By funding, training and arming jihadist elements in Afghanistan, Syria and Libya since the Cold War and waging wars of regime change and interventions that gave birth to the Islamic State, the American national security state has perpetuated a war on terror that justifies its own expansion and increases its profit margin. At the same time these adventures abroad have put citizens in the West in grave peril and in a state of government-curated ignorance. 'The Management of Savagery' tells the story of the parallel rise of international jihadism and Western ultra-nationalism.
