Ebook: Terrorism and Tyranny: Trampling Freedom, Justice and Peace to Rid the World of Evil

The war on terrorism is the first political growth industry of the new Millenium.' So begins Jim Bovard's newest and, in some ways, most provocative book yet. Bovard casts another jaundiced eye on Washington and the motives behind protecting 'the homeland' and prosecuting a wildly unpopular war with Iraq. For Jim Bovard, as always, it all comes down to a trampling of personal liberty and an end to privacy as we know it. From airport security follies that protect no one to increased surveillance of individuals and skyrocketing numbers of detainees, the war on terrorism is taking a toll on individual liberty and no one tells the whole grisly story better than Jim Bovard.
