Summary, etc. Because the USA is politically weak but militarily strong it chooses, according to this book, to maintain or support terrorist operations throughout the world which can then be used as legitimate targets for armed intervention.The American press and other media are used by the government to present a suitably sanitised version of events to the US public who can then be persuaded to support government actions. The acquiescence of the mass media is a theme running through other works by this author.
