- Killing Hope
U.S. Military and CIA Interventions Since World War II Resource Type: Book Published: 2008 Is the United States a force for democracy? William Blum serves up a forensic overview of U.S. foreign policy spanning sixty years. For those who want the details on the U.S.'s most famous actions (Chile, Cuba, Vietnam, to name a few), and for those who want to learn about lesser-known efforts (France, China, Bolivia, Brazil, for example), this book provides a window on what U.S. foreign policy goals really are. "If you flip over the rock of American foreign policy of the past century, this is what crawls out
invasions
bombings
overthrowing governments
occupations
suppressing movements for social change
assassinating political leaders
perverting elections
manipulating labor unions
manufacturing news
death squads
torture
biological warfare
depleted uranium
drug trafficking
mercenaries
Its not a pretty picture. Its enough to give imperialism a bad name."
