Aprašymas

Sean Hogan deconstructs the word 'terrorist, ' the most notorious label in global politics, and exposes how that powerfully loaded term is weaponized. Pulling from law, history, and media reportage, he reveals that the distinction between a 'terrorist group' and an 'allied government' is arbitrary in the hands of the powerful.

The Afghan mujahideen become al-Qaeda, but only after they'd done the bidding of the CIA. Nelson Mandela is branded a terrorist just before receiving the Nobel Peace Prize. And when Palestinian children are killed on the off chance of taking out a Hamas operative, that's unfortunate 'collateral damage, ' but Israel's right to defend itself is never in doubt.
