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.
