Description: Examines the myths that have arisen around the war on terrorism and the ways they are used to benefit a small elite. Demonstrates how accepted accounts of the causes of the U.S. military intervention in Afghanistan, the conduct of the war, and its consequences have been systematically distorted, and shows how global power is being redefined in the process.
