Rezension zu „Blackwater “

"'Meticulously researched and fascinating... Scahill does a fine job' Sunday Times 'Scahill deserves commendation' New Statesman 'Essential reading' Irish Mall on Sunday 'Blackwater is the utterly gripping and explosive story of how the Bush Administration has spent hundreds of millions of public dollars building a parallel corporate army, an army so loyal to far right causes it constitutes nothing less than a Republican Guard. The most important and chilling book about the death throes of U.S. democracy you will read in years and a triumph of investigative reporting' Naomi Klein, author No Logo 'Of all the insane Bush privatization efforts, none is more frightening than the corporatizing of military combat forces. Jeremy Scahill admirably exposes a devastating example of this sinister scheme' - Michael Moore, Academy Award Winning Director"
