110 p. ; 19 cm. The terrorism trap is powerfully argued analysis of the deeper causes and meaning of september 11. Why did the attacks happen? Who is to be blamed? Who is taking advantage of the crisis? Who is hurt by all the ensuing events? Why do they hate us? Responding to such questions, Michael Parenti probes the religious zealotry of today, Afghanistan's hidden history, and the course of US-led globalization that has impoverished and angered much of the world. This acute dissection of the political, economic, and religious forces behind the attacks provided historical perspective and insight into how to prevent future terrorism and save democracy. Terrorism meets reactionism -- The september 11 imperative -- Why did it happen? -- Afghanistan, the untold story -- Why the US leaders intervene everywhere -- Epilogue : What is to be undone?
