It’s the dirty little secret of the War on
Terror: all bets are off, and almost
anything goes. The rules of the game
and of engagement have fundamentally changed.
Today drone strikes, night raids, and U.S. government targeted killings
occur in corners across the globe, killing untold numbers of civilians.
Investigative
reporter Jeremy Scahill traces the rise of the Joint Special Operations
Command, the most secret fighting force in U.S. history, exposing operations
carried out by men who do not exist on paper and will never appear before
Congress. No target is off-limits for
the JSOC “kill list,” not even U.S. citizens.
“Essential viewing, at times it plays like a real-life Jason
Bourne flick.”
—Ernest
Aardy, The Village Voice
“Incredible. A
must-see.”
—Chris
Hayes, All In, MSNBC
“Utterly riveting.”
—Stephen Holden, The New York Times
“A mystery thriller as
compelling as any feature film.”
—Erica
