US foreign policy vs the world -- Terrorism -- Iraq -- Afghanistan -- Iran -- George W. Bush -- Condoleeza Rice -- Human rights, civil liberties, and torture -- WikiLeaks -- Conspiracies -- Yugoslavia -- Libya -- Latin America -- Cuba -- The Cold War and anti-communism -- The 1960s -- Ideology and society -- Our precious environment -- The problem with capitalism -- The media -- Barack Obama -- Patriotism -- Dissent and resistance in America -- Religion -- Laughing despite the empire -- But can we do?
For over 65 years, the United States war machine has been on auto pilot. Since World War II, the world has believed that US foreign policy means well, and that America's motives in spreading democracy are honorable, even noble. In this startling and provocative book from William Blum, one of the United States' leading non-mainstream chroniclers of American foreign policy and author of the popular online newsletter, Anti-Empire Reports, demonstrates that nothing could be further from the truth. America's Deadliest Export is the in-depth exposâe of the many contradictions surrounding the nature of US foreign policy.
