John Pilger is one of the world's renowned investigative journalists and
documentary filmmakers. In this classic book, with an updated
introduction, he reveals the secrets and illusions of modern
imperialism. Beginning with Indonesia, he shows how General Suharto's
bloody seizure of power in the 1960s was part of a western design to
impose a 'global economy' on Asia.
A million Indonesians died as
the price for being the World Bank's 'model pupil'. In a shocking
chapter on Iraq, he delineates the true nature of the West's war against
the people of that country. And he dissects, piece by piece, the
propaganda of the 'war on terror' to expose its Orwellian truth.
Finally, he looks behind the picture-postcard image of his homeland,
Australia, to illuminate an enduring legacy of imperialism: the
subjugation of the First Australians.
