In this book Vltchek exposes cruelty, corruption, murder, and other consequences of unrestrained imperialism, mostly by western powers, through the eyes of a man with socialist inclinations. He enters the world of the oppressed, often literally, physically, and reports on crimes and injustices that will shock all but the most callous doubter. He covers stories seldom reported in western MSM, and his reports are disturbingly believable. Throughout the book he wears his emotions on his sleeve. It is hard not to be drawn in.
Mr. Vltchek exhibits broad experience investigating disturbing conditions across the world, and gives a first person account of actual conditions that exist or have existed in troubled areas across the globe, including Kenya, Somalia, Panama, Central America, Turkey, Viet Nam, India, Israel, Palestine, Syria, Chile, Cambodia, and many more. Two areas stand out as being of special concern to him: DR Congo and Indonesia (including East Timor.) Both of those countries have suffered mass murders in the millions.
Reports of countries that are socialist or communist leaning such as China, North Korea, and Cuba are treated more gently in this book, exposing perhaps the author’s prejudice, but at the same time giving western readers a view generally denied them by the western mainstream media.
This book is a virtual world tour of recent history, one that is NOT written by the local Chambers of Commerce.
