History

Economist and bestselling author Loretta Napoleoni traces the link between the finances of the War on Terror and the global economic crisis, finding connections from Dubai to London to Las Vegas that politicians and the media have, at best, ignored. Consumers and tax payers, spurred by propaganda fears, were lured into crushing global debt. Napoleoni shows readers that if the world does not face up to the many serious connections between the response to 9/11 and the financial crisis, it can never work its way out of global recession.
