Pieces by William Blum, Ahmed Rashid and Norm Dixon explore the history of U.S. imperialism in Afghanistan and how it helped create Osama Bin Laden and his Al Qaeda network and pave the way for the Taliban to take power. A smaller section explores the post-S11 fallout within North America, domestic repression and national unity.
While dated, this pamphlet provides an interesting snapshot of what some people on the left were saying in the weeks after the twin towers came down.
