Sommario/riassunto |
|
This provocative, thoroughly researched book explores the covert |

Beginning with Thailand in the 1950's, Americans have become inured to the CIA's alliances with drug traffickers (and their bankers) to install and sustain right-wing governments. The pattern has repeated itself |
