AMERICA'S "WAR ON
TERRORISM"
by Michel
Chossudovsky
Expanded and Updated Edition of the 2002
Best-Seller:
War and Globalisation, The Truth behind
September 11, with Eleven New Chapters
Publication date: 11 September
2005
In this new and expanded edition of
Michel Chossudovsky's 2002 best seller, the author blows away the smokescreen
put up by the mainstream media, that 9/11 was an attack on America by "Islamic
terrorists". Through meticulous research, the author uncovers a
military-intelligence ploy behind the September 11 attacks, and the cover-up and
complicity of key members of the Bush Administration.
The expanded edition, which
includes twelve new chapters focuses on the use of 9/11 as a pretext for the
invasion and illegal occupation of Iraq, the militarisation of justice and law
enforcement and the repeal of democracy.
According to Chossudovsky,
the "war on terrorism" is a complete fabrication based on the illusion
that one man, Osama bin Laden, outwitted the $40 billion-a-year American
intelligence apparatus. The "war on
terrorism" is a war of conquest. Globalisation is the final march to the "New
World Order", dominated by Wall Street and the U.S. military-industrial
complex.
September 11, 2001 provides a
justification for waging a war without borders. Washington's agenda consists in extending the frontiers of the American
Empire to facilitate complete U.S. corporate control, while installing within
America the institutions of the Homeland Security State.
Chossudovsky peels back layers
of rhetoric to reveal a complex web of deceit aimed at luring the American
people and the rest of the world into accepting a military solution which
threatens the future of humanity.
"Millions of people have been misled regarding
the causes and consequences of September 11.
When people across the US and around the World
find out that Al Qaeda is not an outside enemy but a creation of US foreign
policy and the CIA, the legitimacy of the bipartisan war agenda will tumble
like a deck of cards." (Michel Chossudovsky, first edition,
2002)
Across the land, the image of an "outside
enemy" is instilled in the consciousness of Americans. Al Qaeda is threatening
America and the world. The repeal of democracy under the Patriot legislation
is portrayed as a means to providing "domestic security" and upholding civil
liberties.
The 9/11 Commission Report destroys the
historical record of US covert support to international terrorism, while
creating the illusion that America and "Western Civilization" are threatened.
In turn, the various terrorist warnings and code orange alerts have created,
across America, an atmosphere of fear and
intimidation.
