In this new and expanded edition of Michel Chossudovsky’s 2002 bestseller, 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 militarization 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. Globalization 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.

Editorial Reviews

Review

Material this provocative and well researched must not be ignored. --Scott Loughrey, Baltimore Sun

Chossudovsky's book is a "connect the dots" work that should be required reading for media-misled and history-starved Americans --Kellia Ramares, Online Journal

Chossudovsky has written an alarming book that ought to serve as a wakeup call for every citizen in the World. --Anthony Lafratta, Chapter-Indigo, --This text refers to the paperback edition.

From the Author

"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."

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.

Michel Chossudovsky, America's "War on Terrorism", Global Research 2005 --This text refers to the paperback edition.

a "war on terrorism" reality check

Michel Chossudovsky's powerful book is a must-read for those lulled by American propaganda. The professor makes use of incredible research and contacts for his books, which are always readable.

Essential reading, plain and simple.

Reviewed in the United States on June 6, 2007

Michel Chossudovsky has been one of my favorite writers on issues like globalization and the bogus "war o'terror" for some time now. He elegantly documents his meticulous research simply and without sensationalized embellishment. Unlike many other writers, Chossudovsky isn't attempting to entertain you or sell books; rather, he is delineating critical information in a lucid and precise fashion that will make sense for even the most casual reader.

While I personally didn't necessarily glean a great deal of strikingly new information of which I wasn't at least partially previously aware, this book certainly helped me to put the puzzle pieces together and frame a better glimpse of the larger picture, outside of the perception management. It was nice to see this volume tie up loose ends and illustrate a time line of sorts. This is an especially great book for a new student of this topic.

CIA Involvement in Afghanistan Drug Trade

Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2011

Verified Purchase

I won't bother to write a long detailed review,because on my last attempt it was mysteriously deleted.Nor will I attempt to cover the whole theme of Chossudovsky's book.The most shocking revelation for me was the strong evidence presented in Chapter XV1, 'The Spoils of War:Afghanistan's Multi billion Dollar Heroin Trade'.Professor Chossudovsky provides tables and statistics which indicate that the Heroin Trade is the third most profitable commodity in Global trade, only exceeded by oil and timber production.This trade is sponsored by powerful interests who operate through proxies. The proceeds of this trade are laundered through the Banks and are worth something like 90 billion a year.Those proceeds are then used to finance legitimate businesses.This is only the tip-of-the iceberg as it were.Read this book for yourself,and you will realise,that if Chossudovsky's thesis is correct, those in power are ultimately criminal. And the evil which calls itself,among other names, the C.I.A. has,as its agenda,according to Professor Chossudovsky,
the expansion and extension of " The American Empire." There are of course many more topics such as 9/11;HAARP,the connection with the Bin Ladens and the Bushes.The New World Order and much more.This book is well researched,and can be supported by checking notes and references.Altogether a highly creditable and well documented book.Reading it will change the way one sees the world.

Who is behind the American war on terror?

Reviewed in the United States on July 18, 2011

Verified Purchase

America's war on terrorism is a brilliant book. Professor Chossudovsky has done a good job , a lot of research and he is a very well documented and informed writter.. He explains in detail the evil of those in power who have lied and deceaved not only the American people but the whole world. The evil of the empire who has forced its hegemony not only in South East Asia in the infamous Viet Nam war during the kennedy-Johnson regimes but also in South and Central America in the Regan years and has continued unbridled making wars in Asia, Africa, Eastern Europe, the Balkan States, the Middle East and continues intimidating the ones who oppose to its dominance and hegemony by using its military might.
However Mr. Chossudovsky fails to reveal the real causes and the criminals who are behind all this mess and are responsible for all the conflicts that are destroying the very fabric of the American democracy and economy.
He keeps mentioning the ICI (Pakistan Military Intelligence) and every body else as the ones who were behind 9/11. He blames the Bush Administration, the State Department, the Anglo American Oil Giants, Wall Street, the powerful media giants and the Washington think tanks operating discretely behind the scenes but he deliberately fails to mention the work of Israel in the United States through the Zionist Power Configuration in high ranking positions in the US governmet who work as a transmission belt from Tel Aviv to Washington.
Prior to 9/11 powerful officials in the Pentagon like Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Pearle, Elliot Abrams, Douglas Feith (All of them Zionist Jews) who were cought stealing and passing top secret documents to Israel. Douglas Faith created "The Office of Special Plans" who fabricated the false information for the Iraq war.
When the Pentagon offices are flooded, like a crowded bordello on Saturday night with Israeli intelligence officers, crowding out even members of their own Pentagon staff full of Mossad agents, full of Israeli generals consulting day by day, hour by hour in the making of Iraq policy and this is very well documented a hundred times.
There is overwhelming evidence that American and Israel officials didn't just have foreknowledge of the event, but planned the attack and carried it out. It was Mossad-CIA false flag used to protect the Zionist entity from any future military threat and expand the parasitic hegemony of the illegitimate Tel viv regime throughout the world via Zionist inspired "war on terror".
All these wars in the Middle East and Central Asia were done to favor Israel supremacy, hegemony, dominance and expansionism in the Middle East and to take out of the picture Saddam Hussein a staunch supporter of the Palestinian cause, with the money and blood of the American people.
Read "the Power of Israel in the United States" by James Petras. There are many other books on the subject, videos, conferences etc.....

1984 pour de vrai

Reviewed in France on May 3, 2009

Pour connaitre l'idéologie de l'Amérique contemporaine, le mieux est de savoir d'abord ce qu'elle dit d'elle même et pour cela rien ne vaut la lecture de ses idéologues ; celle de ses politiciens (H. Kissinger, Z. Brzenzinsky), de ses économistes (M. Friedman), de ses philosophes officiels (S. Huntington). Ajoutons ici quelques rapports clés du Pentagone et du PNAC. Avec ceci, nous sommes fixés : l'Amérique nous dit sans ambage qu'elle veut la domination sans partage du monde.
Il faut ensuite s'attaquer à la lecture d'auteurs moins officiels pour comprendre que les dirigeants américains n'ont jamais été regardant sur les moyens mis en œuvre pour mener cette politique. Plus radical que Zinn ou Chomsky, Michel Chossudovsky professeur d'économie à l'université d'Ottawa, et Directeur du Centre de recherche sur la mondialisation nous éclaire sur les tenant et aboutissant des guerres actuelles.
Cet excellent livre (seconde édition) dont la version française (Guerre et mondialisation. La vérité derrière le 11 septembre) n'est malheureusement que la traduction réduite de la première édition (11 chapitres sur 21) démontre avec brio la nature de la prétendue guerre contre le terrorisme menée un peu partout dans le monde sous la houlette de l'impérialisme américain.
La thèse développée ici est désormais classique : Les services de renseignement américains ont crée leurs propres organisations terroristes pour affaiblir l'Union Soviétique dans les années quatre-vingt. Dans le même temps, elles ont créé leur propre réseau d'alerte concernant ces organisations. En retour, elles ont développée un programme anti-terroriste cohérent de plusieurs milliards de dollars pour « contrer » ces organisations terroristes. Anti-terrorisme et propagande de guerre sont intimement entremêlés.
L'objectif principal des États-Unis est de fabriquer un ennemi implacable contre lequel tous les moyens, même les pires, pourront être légitimement employés. L'objectif final est la domination planétaire et la réduction des états, notamment la Russie et la Chine, à n'être plus que des zones de libre-échange jetées en pâture aux sociétés américaines. Le rôle du 11 septembre est fondamental pour mener à bien une politique de prédation mise en place il y a plusieurs décennies, mais sur l'évènement lui-même, l'auteur reste prudent : il dégage le terrain de part et d'autre mais ne questionne pas trop la version officielle.
Voilà donc les axes de cet ouvrage qu'il faut juger sur la qualité de l'information et de l'argumentaire même si on n'en partage pas les conclusions.
