The term 'terrorism' is often applied exclusively to non-state
groups or specific 'rogue states'. Far less attention is given to
state terrorism carried out or sponsored by democracies, most
notably the United States. History shows that this state terrorism
has been responsible for the deaths of millions of people. Weapon
of the Strong analyses the forms of US state terrorism through
exclusive, never before published interviews with leading
commentators and theorists, including Noam Chomsky, Edward S.
Herman, Richard A. Falk, Judith Butler, Ted Honderich, Norman
Finkelstein and Gilbert Achcar. The interviews explore the
different aspects of state terrorism: its functions, institutional
supports and the legal and moral arguments surrounding it, and
consider specific case studies in Europe, Latin America and the
Middle East. Weapon of the Strong makes an indispensable
contribution to contemporary debates on terrorism and constructs a
damning critique of US foreign policy from World War Two to the
present day.
