Krátky popis
In 2011, an elite group of US Navy SEALS stormed an enclosure in
the Pakistani city of Abbottabad and killed Osama bin Laden, the
man the United States had begun chasing before the devastating
attacks of 9/11. The news did much to boost President Obama's first
term and played a major part in his reelection victory of the
following year. But much of the story of that night, as presented
to the world, was incomplete, or a lie. The evidence of what
actually went on remains hidden. At the same time, the full story
of the United States' involvement in the Syrian civil war has been
kept behind a diplomatic curtain, concealed by doublespeak. It is a
policy of obfuscation that has compelled the White House to turn a
blind eye to Turkey's involvement in supporting ISIS and its
predecessors in Syria. This investigation, which began as a series
of essays in the London Review of Books, has ignited a firestorm of
controversy in the world media. In his introduction, Hersh asks
what will be the legacy of Obama's time in office. Was it an era of
"change we can believe in" or a season of lies and compromises that
continued George W. Bush's misconceived War on Terror?How did he
lose the confidence of the general in charge of America's forces
who acted in direct contradiction to the White House? What else do
we not know?
