Noam Chomsky and Vijay Prashad interrogate key inflection points in America's downward spiral: from the disastrous Iraq War to the failed Libyan intervention to the descent into chaos in Afghanistan. As the final moments of American power in Afghanistan fade from view, this book argues that we must not take our eyes off the wreckage, and that we need, above all, an unsentimental view of the new world we must build together.
